There's a new school bus ... er, I mean food truck in town. That big silver bullet you see cruising up and down the streets of Charlotte is Chrome Toaster, a food truck specializing in what Chef Aaron Rivera calls "American street sandwiches."

- Rock Shrimp Po'Boy with Avocado, Spinach, and Tomato
Although the menu changes regularly, here's a sample menu of what sandwiches I found on the menu when I visited the food truck recently:
- Rock Shrimp Po'boy, Aji Amarilla with Avocado, Spinach, and Tomato
- Chicken and Brie with Tomatoes, Sprouts, and Apricot/Bacon Mayo
- Lamb Burger, Tzatziki, Tomato, Cucumber, and Sprouts
- Pork Loin Banti Mi, Cabbage and Carrot Slaw, and Spicy Aioli
- Chicken BLT Salad with Pepperoncini Dressing
- Kelly Davis
- Tarro Chips with Queso Fresco
If a sandwich isn't quite enough, Rivera prepares a few sides that can be purchased in addition to your sandwich. These items were on the menu recently:
- Tarro Chips with Queso Fresco and Spicy Aioli
- Fried Potatoes with Parmesan Herbs
- Brussel Sprouts with Bacon and Shallots

- Chef Aaron creates American street sandwiches in his chrome gray school bus turned food truck.
To find out where you can find these creative sandwiches, follow the Chrome Toaster on Facebook or Twitter.
