Changes are coming to the City of Covington. This is where I live. Apparently the city isn’t aware that I hate change, but these are changes I think I can live with.
On Tuesday, commissioners for the City of Covington voted on whether they wanted to relax zoning ordinances to allow food trucks and micro-distilleries. It looks like it’s a go. This is going to create some jobs and some more money for the city. Yes, it’s a good decision.
Having said that, I don’t ever see myself going to a food truck for food. If you want to, great. You know, we’ll all different. I’d rather go to a restaurant and sit down and enjoy myself rather than standing up to eat.
It’s kind of like those hot dog vendors all over downtown Cincinnati. Once I was in a hurry and got a hot dog from one of these vendors, took a few bites of it and the damn thing fell apart. I ended up throwing it in a garbage can. It wasn’t a good time and I suspect those food trucks would be the same thing for me.
As far as micro-distilleries, I don’t see myself purchasing a beverage of this type either. I’m more of a cocktail kind of guy, but suit yourself. I’m not going to stop you from ordering one.
That’s pretty much all I have to say about food trucks and micro-distilleries in Covington, but I want you to take note on how agreeable I am on these two subjects.
I’ll write another post on Saturday. I don’t know what it will be yet, but chances are it won’t be as agreeable as this one.

I agree you are being agreeable but if you’re not going to try either one of these then nothing has changed for you. That’s why it’s a change you can live with
If the food prices on these trucks is reasonable, I will give them a try.
That’s what I always like about Gus. Short and to the point.
I’m assuming these food trucks will stop for customers and that they won’t have to run after them.
Except for a few places, there isn’t a bunch of foot traffic in Covington so I don’t know how those food trucks will do. In downtown Cincinnati, there is plenty of foot traffic but don’t come here. We got enough traffic.
I’m more or less with you on this one, don’t think I’ll be visiting a food truck anytime soon but others are welcome to do it. I myself have had bad experiences with those hot dog stands downtown, no fun with them falling to pieces with catsup and pickles or whatever all over my face. I’m gonna sit down and eat, damn it!
Will these food trucks offer iceberg lettuce
