The Dig’s Orange Chicken

Tastemaker
June 3, 2023

Food trucks are out in force across the North, and we’ve made it a mission to try as many of them as we can. Our first stop for the season: The Dig’s of Gaylord (now also found at The Little Fleet in Traverse City). This truck—easy to spot by its bright red, black, and white paint job—serves up Asian-inspired dishes from potstickers to stir fry to sweetened cream cheese wontons. We recently gave their Orange Chicken a whirl, and fell for the crispy chicken doused in tangy, slightly spicy orange sauce. Choose from fried rice (complete with veggies like carrots and peas) or steamed rice (topped with sesame seeds) for a hearty meal on a sunny evening. Oh, and be sure to add a dash of Sriracha, available at the window, for an extra kick. Find them in Gaylord at 402 S Otsego Ave or in TC at 448 E Front St. (989) 370-5091; digsfoodtruck.com
