Last week's Food Truck Wednesday featured Iowa's favorite chicken sandwiches from Charlotte’s Kitchen! The Crab Rangoon and Nashville Hot were crowd favorites. We are grateful for the community that continues to show up week after week to support local.

If you missed out last week, don't worry! We've teamed up with VizyPay to bring a different food truck to Waukee every Wednesday through September!

Next up: Magoo's Pizza DSM
