The Mother Of All Food Truck Rallies: TruckFest ’12

by Steven Doyle

I think most of us have enjoyed a food truck rally or two in the past year in Dallas.  These are the cool gatherings of trucks that feed massive amounts of people in a matter of hours, all walking away with a smorgasbord of cuisine ranging from banh mi’s to pizza.  There is always something for everyone. Often times these events are tied into a fundraising event to benefit one charity or another.                

Hold on to your saddles people, the mother of all rallies is making its way to Dallas.  The Texas Food Truck Fest will feature over 30 trucks from around the state May 11 and 12, 2012. You will finally see the Austin trucks you have heard about next to your classic favorites from the DFW area, along with some brand new trucks that will be rolling out in the coming month.

The event benefits Leukemia Lymphoma Society of North Texas and will be hosted at the Valley View Mall parking lot (free parking). There is also a 5k associated with this event called a Dine and Dash.  Get all the trucking information at their website. Admission is $5.
