As I waited in the long line at the trailer trying to decide
what to order, I heard the man in front of me in line commenting on the menu.
“The Okie Tonic is the best thing.” Well, that was enough convincing for me.
Lola’s serves gourmet food right out of a food truck.
At the window, I ordered from Lola Palazzo herself, owner
of Lola’s Gypsy Caravan. Lola formerly owned a restaurant in the Brady District,
but gave it all up and bought a silver AirStream trailer instead.
I ordered the Okie Tonic (a lemonade with ginger), and the
Shiny Bullet (a burrito named after the trailer). I sat under an awning with an
eclectic group of people, and ate my lunch in happiness, looking out on Route
66. The best part was definitely the Okie Tonic.
Lola’s Gypsy Caravan is right off 11th St. in Tulsa, right on the historic Route 66.
