Food trucks have taken over Dallas/Fort Worth area! Packing a lunch is one more thing you can scratch off your to-do list for this evening. Trucks like
The Butcher’s Son food truck is making traveling around town easier to enjoy a delicious lunch.
The Butcher’s Son, a “haute sausage” serving gourmet food truck, prides itself on its chef-built and chef-tested menu. The
Sergeant Pepper (pictured below) is my favorite. Cash and credit cards are accepted, and it's a beautiful, so go ahead and head to them as they are NOT the same trucks seen at construction sites.
In Addison, the "
Food Truck Invasion" is EVERY THURSDAY until May 12, 2012, as food trucks join up at

There's no excuse for you NOT to try a local food truck & you won't regret it. Remember, food trucks move, weather causes changes, and engines break down. Don't miss out on these TEXAS EDITION food trucks.
(Cue the deep manly voice)
Food trucks are making a name for themselves here recently with Tucson Food Truck Roundup about once a month - lots of variety and a really fun atmosphere! Hoping they stick around for a long time.
ReplyDeleteFood truck food is so fun! I especially like the fried pie truck. What's the schedule for when they're all at One Arts Plaza downtown, Jen?
