The first time I heard about Town Talk, I was about 30 weeks pregnant with Eva. It was described to me as a place where “food was cheap”, but also “it could be expired”. In my pregnant mind I wasn’t convinced this was something I needed to check out, and I also completely misheard “Town Talk” as “Ton Tauk”. So, my preconceived notions about this establishment included that 1) it was a small convenience-store type place with moldy bread and 2) there was some sort of multi-cultural aspect with the strange name.
Ok, well, I was wrong on number one and half-wrong on number two.
Town Talk is a once-in-a-lifetime place. I’m still not sure how I lived in Fort Worth (the first time) and had never heard about it. Located in East Fort Worth, It is a massive warehouse of food, some of which IS expired. They DO NOT have moldy bread–they are more likely to have either no bread or frozen, but not moldy. It also turns out that Town Talk really doesn’t have a strange name. That was cleared up immediately–once I read the sign, I understood quite perfectly. It is, however one of the most multi-cultural experiences I’ve had in Fort Worth.
