Located at the Shell gas station off Highway 17 in Vermilion Bay, Bobby's Bites is a food truck serving fare a little different than what you'd normally find on the side of a northern Ontario highway, such as fish tacos and carnitas.
"A lot of people stop and think they're just going to get some fries and a hot dog," explained manager and cook Tasha Doudiet. "[They end up having] something they've never had before."
