Chances are you weren't thinking "Saturday was a beautiful day to launch a food truck," but it was. The Wrapper's Delight truck, manned by Sean Brashears and freshly painted in a red theme by Workforce Rebellion, debuted behind Cumberland Transit.

I ordered the Big Ltalian ($8), a sausage, pepper, grilled onion and cheese sandwich with a touch of marinara in a wrap, because what's not to love about sausage and onions and peppers, so long as you eat meat? And I got the Triple 6 Tilapia ($8) with coconut cream rice, almonds, bacon and grilled plantain. Bumped into Tabbulous (Tabitha Tune) as she strolled off with a Biggie Smalls Breakfast: scrambled eggs, bacon, sausage, home fries, cheddar cheese and Tabasco aioli.

Brashears, assistant kitchen manager at McNamara's Irish Pub, reports that among the 50 to 60 covers the first day, the tilapia was the best seller, followed by Big Ltalian. Parked at Cumberland Transit on Saturday, the truck drew equal parts Twitter and Facebook followers and Vanderbilt basketball fans walking by on their way to the game.

He's scheduled to be at the Meet & 3 event this Friday at the Nashville Farmers Market. Follow @WrappersDLite for updates, and check out the menu from Facebook after the jump.

LoL says it's hopefully only closing for a few weeks. I hope that's true. They make a darned fine sandwich!

They sure do! I know they were hoping to find a static location instead of driving around . . . but, were also doing a bang-up business at private companies at lunchtime, such that there were many weekdays that they weren't available to the public.
