interview: oleg voss {the schnitzel man}
oleg voss is the genius behind the schnitzel & things truck {aka the reason that i have had the most tasty lunches ever this month!} and like a true food truck dude, oleg is so cool! he even let me interview him! look: |
m: have you ever dressed up as a schnitzel for halloween?
o: i have never personally dressed up as a schnitzel for halloween. but you know what? my mom sews some mean articles of clothing! i'll have to tell her to sew together some material into a circular shape, and i'll finish up the rest. gonna have to put the whole thing in glue and dive in a pool of bread crumbs.

if you were a schnitzel, which condiment would you want to be slathered in?
lol, if i were a schnitzel, i'd totally want to jump in an ocean of our sriracha mayo.

are you tired of schnitzel?
me tired of schnitzel?? how can i tire of of fried deliciousness?? only thing i'm tired of is pounding hundreds and hundreds of various cutlets of meat on a daily basis. this one process, done 5 days a week for a year straight can make you have some serious nightmares of huge mallets coming after you. i've had multiple dreams where two giant mallets chase me and eventually beat the crap out of me. and when i say beat the crap out of me, i mean they put me in between two pieces of saran wrap and proceed to "tenderize" my entire body into a nice thin round shape. this question is tricky. i'm not tired of eating the schnitzified goodness, because once i tire of chicken, i switch to the pork, or the cod, and on special occasions, i indulge in the real official wiener schnitzel.

do you ever think about taking the schnitzel truck for a road trip to spread the love? where would you go?
i DO think about taking the schnitz mobile on road trips. sadly, i don't think the truck would safely make it past delaware. if the truck ever got stuck in delaware, i think i would just cry. no offense to delaware, but i don't remember any recommendations to vacation there. i'd actually love to take the truck to L.A. where there are tons of food trucks but no schnitz. that place needs schnitzification badly... among other things. we would do some serious slinging up in thur!

where do you go for schnitzel if you want to sit down and be waited on?
i go to
thomas beisl right across the street from BAM in brooklyn, which coincidentally is 2 blocks from where i live. the place reminds me of my suit and tie days spent in similar beisl's in vienna.
