Dallas/Ft. Worth Food Truck News and Schedule for July 30

The Cedars Food Park got off to a roaring success, as reported earlier.  Given the many, many options that you’ve got to try our varied food trucks, there is no need to settle for a toasted blacktop asphalt surface.  The opening of Dallas’ first food truck park was nearly a 100% roaring operational success.  I was there right at opening time at 5pm.  The food trucks were all parked with easy access.  There was plenty of space so that lines from one didn’t cross with lines from another.  It’s mostly grass and trees, giving lots of shade.  Unfortunately, the gazebo that was supposed to be air conditioned had nothing but hot, stale air.  There was a lot to like with the choice of food trucks and the operation was very well run.  However, it is still July in Texas.  It is bloody hot.  Note to event planners: Please plan the multi-thousand food truck events for Spring and Fall.  Or at least sub-100 degree temperatures.

Moving on to this week, many of the food trucks are planning light schedules because of the heat.  The same Wednesday/Thursday events remain at Sigels/Greenville and Knox St. Crate & Barrel (Wednesday) and Addison Vitruvian Park (Thursday).

On Wednesday, the regular schedule starts at Cedars Food Park with 3-4 trucks each day.

This week, we add Rock’n’Ricks food truck, a Dallas-based operation serving up a menu of comfort food and philly cheesesteaks.  Jump for this week’s schedule; and always check Facebook or Twitter feeds before venturing out.
