Intelligentsia's Coffee Truck; Lucky Peach Goes Solo

WEST CHELSEA — Intelligentsia Coffee now has a coffee truck. Dubbed the Intelligentsia Mini Bar, it will feature a limited menu of small drinks. The owners of the coffee shop found the 1967 Citroen work truck in the south of France and refurbished it over the summer. For now the truck will be parked in the garden outside The Highline Hotel every day between 7 a.m. and 7 p.m., but in 2014, the goal is to install a larger, more permanent structure and then have the truck go mobile.
