Although there was no Biker Jim's truck at the Food Truck Renegades event Friday night, Jim Pittenger was there, checking in on some of his favorite mobile vendors -- and also accepting accolades from a visitor from Orlando, who'd stopped by his Biker Jim's restaurant for a vegan dog earlier that day, at the suggestion of Cafe Society's Veggie Girl.
