The Southern Mac mac 'n' cheese truck makes its rolling debut on Monday (possibly not enough time for Streets and San to finish doing their thing, but that's just a projection), but the curious can ogle it on Sunday -- and get their mac 'n' cheese fix for the Super Bowl.
The truck will be parked in front of the Southern, 1840 W. North. Inside, chef Cary Taylor will be dishing up the four varieties of cheesy, carby goodness that will be featured on Monday's maiden run.
"We're sitting here debating how much to make" for Sunday, Taylor said.
The Southern opens at 4 p.m. Sunday; the buffet costs $10. "It'll be done when we run out," Taylor says.
Follow the truck on Twitter. "We're gonna have fun with it," says Taylor, chief driver as well as chef. "We've got 24 different varieties going in the back right now. It's gonna be pretty off-the-cuff."
