In 2010 came the vehicular culinary extravaganza which changed the culinary world of Vegas. It’s funny because all these other cities are already ahead of us with these amazing trucks. This brings us to the topic of the day. With shows like “Chopped” or “Hell’s Kitchen,” even the “The Great American Truck Race” reminds us that this is the time for the “Foodie” or self proclaimed “Foodies.” These food trucks that are popping up all over the Vegas Valley are out and ready to cash in on this glorious concept!
For instance, on April 2, 2011 there was a Food Truck event with some of the local big boys like Slidin Thru, the LBS Patty Wagon, the snow cone ppl, plus some new ones like BBQ Boy and Sweet Bunz, Lulu’s , Curbside Cafe.
What made this cool was there were a lot of people there. It was like 200 an hour from just watching. It was nice to see droves of locals come out and support the local businesses. Even though there were some corp guys there, its the mom and pops that make it worth it.
It was cool because BBQBoy was the first Filipino Truck out. There was actual taco trucks there…OH Yea H & H BBQ was ridiculously off the hook! You need to check out the bohemeth they came with….one of the biggest smokers I’ve ever seen. It just gave me an idea to do our own CitySpoon sanctioned event with the trucks even from other cities….It would be amazing! Check out the video here!
Yes this is my cheesey attempt on Videography…but hey I tried!
How rad is it to have that many people show up and all that good food go out! With so much to try I hope people will come out and support more. Watch out big guys! Because the little guys are putting up a fight!
