Chef Point on Wheels

Across the street from Texas Health Harris Methodist Hospital, Pennsylvania Avenue, Fort Worth; www.chefpointonwheels.com

Yes, this is from the same people who brought you the killer cream-laden cuisine in the Conoco gas station in Watauga. Chef Franson Nwaeze and his wife, Paula, have garnered their fair share of PR thanks to their inspired cooking and that questionable venue. Now they've put the whole thing on wheels and can be found serving up their sinful concoctions across the street from where people go after they've had heart attacks.

This food is worth the cholesterol, and you can indulge by rationalizing that Chef Point on Wheels is only here on Wednesdays, from 11 a.m. till 2 p.m. How much damage can you possibly do to your diet? Apparently a lot. And you can kill the interior of your car, too. (More on that later.) We tried Nwaeze's most popular items, the lobster bisque ($7), Sexy Chicken ($10) and bread pudding ($7). The highlights: The fried chicken, all white meat, was delicious, crispy and delicately spiced. The lowlights: The bread pudding, drowning in a brandy butter sauce, is too one-note. And the lobster bisque? Why don't you ask the floorboards of my car, which conveniently absorbed most of it when I went to open its lid? Or you could ask my thighs. That's where the soup went, too. Literally and figuratively.
