Don't Miss the Yellow Tail Food Truck Tailgate Tour

Don’t miss a little Australian sunshine in Philadelphia this Saturday and Sunday. 

The Yellow Tail Food Truck Tailgate Tour will be featuring special creations from Food Network star Jeff Mauro, The Sandwich King, with Yellow Tail wine samples available on-site.

The recipes are designed to go with wine and put a spin on the typical beer-and-wings tailgate menu, just in time for the NFL playoffs. We will be serving food and giving out recipe cards –  something fun and different for your audience – and our chefs will be available for interviews about the recipes. 

The Yellow Tail Food Truck Tailgate Tour is making stops in multiple cities before arriving in Minneapolis for the Super Bowl.

·                     SAT. 12 noon- 2pm – Fine Wine and Good Spirits at Columbus Commons North Shopping Center, 1940 S. Christopher Columbus Blvd.

The Yellow Tail Food Truck and its team of chefs are embarking on a month-long tailgate tour, beginning in Boston and making its way to Minneapolis for the Super Bowl. The truck will be featuring football-friendly sandwich creations from celebrity chef Jeff Mauro (The Sandwich King), together with Yellow Tail wine samples available on site.

Yellow Tail is taking its uniquely Australian brand of fun and festivity to nine cities during the NFL playoffs, serving Jeff’s custom-designed sandwiches at 32 stops in Boston, New York, Philadelphia, Orlando, Tampa, New Orleans, Houston and Dallas before arriving in Minneapolis during Super Bowl week. At each stop, the truck will provide tasting samples of Yellow Tail wines and offer Mauro’s sandwiches for a special price.

The tour celebrates how the camaraderie of sports can bring people together, and offers an unexpected alternative to ordinary game day fare. The tour is also raising awareness for the global hunger relief efforts of Rise Against Hunger.  In addition, anyone encountering the food truck will have an opportunity to be entered to win a trip for two to Australia!

The sandwich recipes are easy to prepare at home and are ideal for tailgating, entertaining, or enjoying the games with family and friends. The recipes can be found at the food truck, at retail locations or at www.yellowtailwine.com.
