Oh, Food Network, how you tease me with your hip New York and Westside LA food trucks with Vietnamese tacos and wasabi ice cream and, uh, I don’t know, hot dogs. Well, as a resident of the Inland Empire, I can finally enjoy a plethora of food trucks myself at the 2011 Inland Empire Food Truck Festival, to be held today at the Citizen’s Bank Arena in Ontario, CA from 11-6, or 10 AM if you wanna get in on the early bird special.
Since food trucks are pretty much banned in the IE, it’s going to be weird for us to have this kind of thing going on here, but with 50 trucks, there’s going to be more than enough food for you to try. From lemongrass chicken tacos to sushi to crepes to vegan chilli fries and some kind of Filipino burrito, there’s literally something for everyone. Even my roommate’s sister who’s allergic to fucking EVERYTHING.
See who’s all going to be there: HERE.
