Big news for the Melt Mobile. Yesterday was their first day with a brand new truck. Now there are two, enabling the MeltMobile to visit Greenwich two or three times a week. On Wednesdays the melt truck continues to set up shop next to Anthropologie at 500 West Putnam Ave in Greenwich. On Thursdays MeltMobile will visit Greenwich Library. So far, this Greenwich Free Press editor has tried the Chicken Bacon Ranch melt and the California chicken melt with avocado, tomato bacon, buttermilk ranch. Call ahead for 5 or more sandwiches (203) 609-1422.

Closer to Central Greenwich there’s Wendy’s Weenies, owned by Wendy Mangano. A staple of the parking lot next to the Havemayer Building at 290 Greenwich Ave, Wendy also does birthdays, fundraisers and parties.
Wendy’s Weenies will be a presence at the Greenwich Town Party on May 24.
On Earth Day, Wendy was open for business as seniors did Tai chi in the adjacent field. Handy in case they worked up an appetite.
