Food Truck Fridays Are In Full Swing

May 19, 2016

Woohoo!

Who else is excited for the return of Food Truck Fridays? Since May 6th – October 21st our beloved food trucks will be at the Recreation Center at 7545 Main Street from 6- 9 p.m. In honor of Food Truck Fridays, let’s talk about some fun food truck facts:

  • Food trucks in the United States date all the way back to 1691.
  • In 1872, the first mobile diner was set up in a horse-drawn wagon.
  • In 1917, the United States Army introduced the first mobile canteens (kitchen) to feed troops in the field.nom
  • In the 1950s, the first ice cream truck was introduced.
  • In 1974, Raul Martinez converted the first ice cream truck into the nation’s first taco truck and parked it in front of a bar in Los Angeles.

Thank you, Raul, for your true contribution to society. There’s something no one can deny about a taco from a truck. Have you not had food truck tacos? Or any food truck foods? Food Truck Fridays are a terrific introduction to the world of food trucks as well as a great way to expand your taste buds.

This week’s vendors include:

  • Seven Seas Mediterranean -Chicken shwarma sandwich, anyone?
  • The Blaxican -Their Mexy Mac was declared “sinfully delicious” by Jennifer Anniston!
  • The Deep South Biscuit Company- Everyone knows the biscuit is a southern staple.
  • Flatbread Bistro- Who’s down for some Hawaiian flatbread pizza?
  • Philly Connection- Half size or whole size, you can’t go wrong here.
  • Heavenly Dolce- Chocolate covered strawberries or cupcake?
  • Ice Ice Lady -Because there is never a wrong time for ice cream

Vendors rotate weekly so be sure to follow CRPA on Facebook to see each week’s lineup.
