It’s been a tough start to June for usNew Yorkers, with the cold and rain ruining summer clothes and rooftop plans. But your reward for stomping through puddles in a coat that should’ve stayed in storage until October is the sweet mana of free Olive Garden food, which as we know is worth the hype. The restaurant chain is driving a food truck into the carb-loving heart of the Flatiron District today, serving samples of the next level in breadstick technology: theBreadstick Sandwich. You’ve got three chances this week to get yours, unless you like jockeying with tourists. The truck is on a 20-city seven-weekBreadstick Nationtour across the country (wonder if it includes a stop inNorth Dakota ), in case you want to plan your music festival attendance along the route. Time: 11 a.m.-2 p.m., 4-7 p.m. Eva Kis is on Twitter @thisiskis, where she talks about pop culture, cats and media almost as much as food. Looking for something to do?
