Food trucks have undoubtedly conquered the world! Mobile restaurants are loved by street food lovers! What is behind their success?
Two words about the history of street food
When looking for mentions of the first food trucks, we should go back to the times of the Civil War, when armed skirmishes caused so much damage to the road infrastructure that the problem was the transport of food. Charles Goodnight had an unusual idea while in Texas. It was he who converted a former military van into a mobile restaurant! Walter Scott, who sells coffee and sandwiches to journalists in Providence, also played an important role in popularizing street food.
Food truck - a real highlight
We no longer associate the usual “going out to food trucks” only with “going out for food”. All kinds of rallies where mobile restaurants appear are also a number of other attractions, such as concerts, exhibitions and competitions. In addition, we have the opportunity to try dishes from different cuisines - and all this in one place is a great option to spend time successfully.
Food trucks of the world!
In many countries, we can try really different dishes while enjoying the unusual appearance of the restaurant. For example, while in Amsterdam, we will meet a food truck where fries with various types of home-made sauces are served, as well as sausages or grilled vegetables from a car in the shape of a huge potato! In Canada, and more precisely on the streets of Montreal, there is a food truck with grilled cheese in various, often unusual editions.
High-quality ingredients
We used to associate street food with low-quality dishes, often served with ingredients that are not fresh and deep-fried in old oil. However, with the heyday of food trucks, the approach changed completely. Mobile restaurants are run primarily out of passion, which is why their owners focus on the highest quality products, often ecological, which are in line with their approach to life.
Everyone loves food trucks! Regardless of whether we are supporters of classic beef burgers or we like Japanese ramen, or maybe vegan cuisine: everyone will find a mobile restaurant with really good food.
