Known for their crowd-favorite goat cheese bites and bold buffalo bites\, their menu also features creamy hummus\, crispy truffle fries\, melty cheese sticks\, and artisan-style gourmet pizzas.

Sam is known for putting his own unique artistic spin on classic pop tunes spanning the past 6+ Decades using his powerful voice\, acoustic guitar\, and looping pedal for percussion. \n\n\n\nSend It Sammies: is a mountain-bike-inspired sandwich food truck serving up artisan creations born straight from the trails of Greensboro\, NC. Owner Joel jokes that when a coworker first suggested mountain biking\, he laughed it off — “Bikes are for kids and Tour de France folks\,” he thought. One ride proved him wrong. It wasn’t just the rush of speed or that little jolt of fear on a tight turn; it was the style\, the people\, and the community. Mountain biking helped him get healthier\, discover some of the most beautiful places in America\, and ultimately inspired a leap of faith: trading his corporate job for life on the food truck. \n\n\n\nGioia dell’Amore Cellars (pronounced: “Joy-A” – “dell” – “Ah more ay”) invites you to savor the Joy of Love in every sip and every step.
