Squid Eats: Laundry Day Takeaway

It is time once again for the Vermont International Film Festival, just one more reason October in Vermont is awesome.  With a packed schedule of movies, it can be a challenge squeezing in meals.  Fortunately, they invite food trucks to help out at dinner time.


Laundry Day Takeaway is a Cajun/Creole truck based in Burlington.  This was our first experience with them.  I got a spicy crayfish pasta dish.  My wife got dirty rice which I couldn't try - contained nuts, a no-go for me.  The cornbread came free.  All was satisfying.  


The festival takes the "international" part of its name seriously.  A few of our films so far (producing nations in parentheses):

Promised Sky (Tunisia, France, Senegal) - 4 stars out of 5
Cutting Through Rocks (Qatar, Chile, Iran, Canada, Netherlands, Germany, US) - 4 stars
Miroirs No. 3 (Germany) - 3 stars

Interestingly, all three are led by female protagonists.
