Will Will White consent to an interview? "Gee, let me think, um..fuck, yeah, man!" says the up-and-coming comedian and restaurateur. White's exuberance has reached a fever pitch lately, as his bourgeoning standup career dovetails with a new chapter in his business career -- as owner of the Caveman Cafeteria.

In the following interview, White discusses the advantages of a paleolithic-style diet, getting out of the Army, support from Denver's standup community and the final week of his Kickstarter project.

Chris Hernandez and Dalia Hannah.

Falafel is like fried chicken for non-meat-eaters. It's crunchy and flavorful and filling. And there are many, many different ways to serve it.

Dalia Hannah and Chris Hernandez are experimenting with as many of those ways as possible in their new food truck, Baba's Falafel, which took to the streets in October. They plan to keep it running all winter, and all in the name of falafel.

Tonight, at 4 p.m., on the corner of Ninth and Bannock, a fleet of food trucks and carts are gathering for the season opener of the Food Truck Renegades, a coalition of mobile vendors that includes Crock Spot, the Steuben's food truck, NZ Smoking Guns, Mikes2Kitchen, Sweetness, Brava! Pizzeria, Stick It To Me, Mythos Greek, the Biscuit Bus, and more.

And earlier this week, we offered one Cafe Society commenter the chance to eat and drink for free at the shindig. In order to win, you had to answer the following question: How many pounds of pork has Crock Spot served since January 1, 2012?

The correct answer is 2,416 pounds, and the person who came the closest without going over (yes, that was our rule), is...

It appeared that Saturday's downpour would dampen the first Justice League soiree of the season, but at the last minute, Mother Nature cooperated, and right before the ticker struck 6 p.m., the clouds sailed off into the sunset, giving way to a sky of cobalt blue, making the League's spring kick-off pavement party one of the best blowout food orgies of the year.

On Saturday night, the season's first Justice League of Street Food party will take over the pavement at TAXI, and earlier this week, we held a contest, giving one Cafe Society reader the opportunity to eat and drink for free.

Ten trucks will be at the bash, including Manna from Heaven, the Vietnamese food truck that slings some of the best bánh mì in Denver. And we asked readers to correctly answer a question about Manna from Heaven: How many bánh mì did the truck serve between May 1 and May 13?

We got low answers and we got high answers, but no one nailed it on the head. Still, one reader came the closest without going over. And that person is...

Follow That Cart

Someday, Patrick Creager and his wife, Ari Murdock, would like to open up a soda fountain. "I love the concept of a modern soda shop," he explains. "I really delved in behind the bar at Olivea, and I found ways to incorporate fruits and vegetables and spices and herbs with sugar as a medium. Then I turned them into sodas."

Last October, after the Justice League of Street Food, a confederation of food trucks that pioneered the city's love of pavement grub, held its final street food bash at TAXI, there were rumblings that this could be the end for the Justice League. "We haven't made any decision about whether we're going to continue next year," said Delores Tronco, who organized the gatherings. "It's been a great year; we've had an absolute ball. We're trying to determine if the group has a future, if it will disappear and be reincarnated...or just disappear."

The Justice League is not disappearing.

Celebrity chef Jake Gandolfo will join the Crock Spot and other food trucks on April 29 for a Food Bank of the Rockies benefit.

After last summer's street-food shindigs wound down, there was some indication that the food-truck parties -- at least the Justice League soirees, which were at the forefront of catapulting Denver's street-food scene to prominence -- might be grinding to a halt. "We haven't made any decision about whether we're going to continue next year," Delores Tronco, who organized the Justice League parties, told Westword editor Patty Calhoun after the Justice League had thrown its last bash of the season. "It's been a great year; we've had an absolute ball. We're trying to determine if the group has a future, if it will disappear and be reincarnated...or just disappear."
