Why Madisonians Love This Big Purple Food Truck š
Itās hard to miss the Cinn City Smash food truck. Itās big, purple, and covered in cartoon art that, if you look closely, shows some of Madisonās most iconic places. The truck has been in business for about a year, popping up at bars and festivals around town serving the unlikely combination of smash burgers and churros. And the people of Madison have been eating it up, literally. To get the scoop on whatās made Cinn City such a smashing success, host Bianca Martin caught up with the truckās owners and long-time besties Rutger Schiesser and Maximus āNoodleā Perdomo.
Join us every Thursday as we explore Madison's food culture, from the brewers and bakers to the chefs and cheesemakers.
