I just love how the food truck craze has exploded in the Triangle! Although Raleigh & Chapel Hill have been hesitant to fully embrace these culinary entrepreneurs on wheels, Durham and Carrboro have welcomed them with open arms – as evidenced by the 25 truck fiesta held this past Sunday.
Italian beef brisket and meatball subs...yum!
We wanted to try something new so Harold went for the Korean grub at Bulkogi and I tried the meatball sub at Valentino’s, which was excellent. But the real winner was the hot chocolate from the Parlour – Harold liked it so much he bought a second cup after drinking most of mine, which I had topped off with toffee sauce. And my Mom enjoyed her cider, which she adorned with a scoop of apple pie ice cream. Good work by the Parlour making their frozen treats a bit more fall friendly!
Check out their website & social media updates for listings of their latest flavor experiments and seasonal specialities!
Here’s the list of all the participants, and Carpe Durham’s live map of current food truck locations, along with their Twitter feeds.
