Yarp?! in the snow, December 2009.

Yarp?! was a food cart that was among the first carts at Cartopia. A worker-owned collective started by two guys, it closed down in June 2010 when the two business partners decided to move on and go their separate ways. Their story was made into a play by Jeremy Benjamin; which featured the two main characters and a fictionalized story.[1] The play is not an accurate account of what really happened, but it represents a nice story to relate the spirit of Yarp?!. Reportedly, it was also much more than merely a food cart, just ask any of the frequent customers.
