Best Type of Food Trucks to Visit When Eating Out
If you’ve never visited a food truck before, you may not be sure where to start. If you’re looking for a good food truck to visit, check out these options and why they’re so popular!
Hot Dog Trucks:
Hot dogs are the ultimate street food. Hasn’t everyone heard of or wanted to eat a street dog in New York? Hot dogs are incredibly popular for food trucks because of their versatility in toppings, portability, and the fact that they appeal to all ages.
Fair Food:
Fair food covers most fried foods, including corn dogs, fried Oreos, ice cream cones, and fry bread. These put you in the mindset of a fun day out at a carnival, which makes them fun to snack on. While not necessarily healthy, they make for a great snack on a day out.
Tacos:
Nothing says good food like a taco, and food truck tacos are as good as they come. Taco trucks often sell authentic street tacos, so you aren’t going to have a Taco Bell experience. Use your visit to branch out and try new flavors that you may not have tried before. Birria tacos are particularly good. You can also find fusion and new-age taco trucks with non-traditional offerings that you might love!
Gyros:
Next to tacos, gyros and Greek food are another one of the more popular food truck options. Often run by families, these food trucks have figured out how to take a gyro platter and turn it into an easy handheld meal, without losing the flavor or experience. Not only is it good food, but it can also lead to fun conversations, as long as the line behind you isn’t too long.
Waffles:
Unlike many other food truck staples, waffles aren’t as portable as food truck fare usually is, but that hasn’t stopped it from being an immensely popular dish. Fancy waffles, both sweet and savory, have taken the foodie and food truck world by storm. They are definitely worth checking out.
Sandwiches:
Sandwiches are a fun food truck staple because of their portability and variety. Many food trucks offer both hot and cold sandwiches, including grilled cheese varieties, paninis, club sandwiches, subs, and other classic varieties. These won’t be your run-of-the-mill sandwiches. Expect new, gourmet ingredients on these menu items. Also, many sandwich food trucks offer specials that they came up with that make visiting them worthwhile.
Pizza:
Pizza cooked in a food truck is often wood-fired pizza, which has a delicious flavor, unlike any other pizza that you will taste. And because they make them to order, not only will you get the flavors you love best, but your pizza will also be fresh and hot for you to eat.
