I don’t know about you, but when I see a food truck… I get hungry. It doesn’t matter if I just had lunch – that truck wafting delicious aromas into my car makes for a “rumbly in my tumbly,” as Winnie the Pooh would say.

Good news for metro-Atlanta residents who also suffer from Rumbly-Tumbly Syndrome… We live in a city that is quite food truck-friendly! Here are a few food truck events around Metro to curb your cravings {pun intended}…

 

Food Truck Tuesdays

3188 Atlanta Rd SE, Smyrna 30080

Smyrna is bringing back “Food Truck Tuesdays” for the third year in a row. Residents can enjoy delicious fare from a multitude of food trucks in Taylor-Brawner Park starting at 5 PM beginning May 5. Here’s a link to the City of Smyrna’s events page with its May 5th line up. Come on out to support local FT’s along with others of Metro’s finest food on wheels!

Brookhaven Food Truck Nights

3493 Ashford Dunwoody Rd, Atlanta 30319

Brookhaven Food Truck Nights returns to Blackburn Park on Wednesday, May 6 starting at 5 PM! Each Wednesday, FT’s from around the city will be there for your culinary pleasure along with live entertainment and a bounce house for the kiddo provided by Baseline Jumps. {Any chance the bounce house is open to children of “all ages?”} Food, friends, a bounce house, and the possibility of wine and beer to be sold on site this year (according to their Facebook Page)… Sounds like a fabulous way to spend a Wednesday night to me!

Atlanta Food Truck Park & Event Center

1850 Howell Mill RD, Atlanta 30318

The Atlanta Food Truck Park & Event Center is, “the first permanent food truck site in Atlanta offering food trucks to the community and visitors for lunch and dinner,” according to the site’s Frequently Asked Questions section, http://atlantafoodtruckpark.com/faqs/.

{How cool is this?! I know I’m a bit late to the party seeing as the AFTP has been up and running since 2012. BUT, that doesn’t mean you should put it on the back burner for Family Night or Date Night.}

Want to know when your favorite FT will be there? Check out their Facebook page. Also, remember to BYOB, lawn chairs, blankets, and coolers to enjoy in the green space!

Happy May Day!
