Monster Mouse Grillhouse

Went here Sunday at the Woodstock fair!!! Excellent food!!! I ate the high rollers sand which, my boyfriend had the classic grilled cheese and cheese curds (amazing mini cheese sticks deep fried) best description for them! YUUUMY! Will be following to them to the next fair! And next year as well! Great people, super clean, excellent superb food!!! 5 thumbs up! :)

«Give Cheeze a Chance» is the battle cry of the Monster Mouse, a food truck dedicated to cheese-​based and cheese-​supportive lunch creations. The truck, based in an unlikely nook along Wallingford’s auto-​oriented Route 5, serves up hot classics and some new treats, all along the theme of its feature ingredient. The Mouse’s primary offerings include:
–Specialty grilled cheese, including a variety of breads, cheese, and stuffins
–Tempura Fried Cheesecake
–Cheezy fries with bacon bits and jalapenos
–Fried Pickles with ranch dressing
–Tomato Soup
The grilled cheese comes in two varieties: the basic make-​your-​own classic (choose yer bread, choose yer cheese, plus optional add-​ins such as bacon, turkey, and caramelized onion), and a handful of specialty creations like the «Mambo Italiano» with mozzarella and fontina, roasted tomato-​basil pesto, kalamata olive tapenade, and spring mix, or the «High Roller’s Club» with sharp cheddar and havarti, smoked turkey, bacon, beer mustard, and spring mix. For between $ 5.50 (classic grilled cheese) and $ 8.75 (specialty sandwiches), you’ll get a «Monster» sized sandwich.
I got a make-​your-​own with whole wheat bread, swiss cheese, and turkey, plus a side of plain fries. The sandwich was proper. The bread was toasted very crispy, while the inside of the bread remained pillow soft. The cheese and turkey were ample — no short shrift on the fillings. The turkey in particular was really good. No frills, just good construction. The fries were good too, with a really crispy exterior and soft inside, though could have done with a bit more zing in the flavor department. I bet they’d take well to a variety of seasonings (caaaajun…). In the end, I took half of my sandwich and it became dinner — these are big portions!
The owners are real peaches. We had a long friendly conversation about the state of food truckery, life on the east coast and business in the cheese industry. As I waited for my sandwich, one of the owners handed me a cheese slice and told me that «we still charge you for the hole in the cheese, so here’s an extra slice to make up for it». If ever there was a food truck with soul, it’s here. It’s kind of bizarre that this little gem is parked in a stark parking lot in the middle of auto-​oriented north Wallingford, sandwiched between a fireplace store (!) and an Avis Rent-​a-​Car. Who’d have thought? As it turns out, you can’t judge a book by its cover.
It’s a shame that this beauty is in Wallingford and not in Boston, where it could compete handily in the burgeoning grilled cheese food truck market (did I just write that?).
