Salt Lake City’s downtown food-truck scene is growing and caters to many tastes. From Asian fusion to burgers, from cupcakes to coffee, these mobile food vendors are redefining and transforming the mobile food environment in Utah.
Vegan Food Truck Round-Up
Food truck rallies (or round-ups) and food truck parks are also growing in popularity in the U.S. At rallies, people can find their favorite trucks all in one place and as well provide a means for a variety of diverse cultures to come together and find a common ground over a love for food.
Six vegan-friendly trucks gathered over October 6th weekend in Salt Lake City for Utah’s first-ever Vegan Food Truck Round-Up.
The food truck event served everything from vegan hot dogs and nachos to falafel and churros in and around The Reverstaurant, 329 E. 300 South, where guests ordered outside, but could eat inside.
Participating trucks were Chiquitos Churros, Falafel Tree, Gerlach’s, Ginger’s and Poutine Your Mouth.
The event took place in the newly established Food Truck Garden—the city’s only permanent food truck court—near the eatery Reverstaurant, where guests had the option of dining inside.
