If your favorite food truck is missing from its usual place on April 1st, don't think it's a joke! That's the date when the trucks we know will change their times and places around the city. They will also be joined by a group of newcomers. We all have a flavorful season ahead of us on the streets of Boston.
BostonZest will be out there covering the street food scene and adding reports to our Food Trucks/Street Food collection.
How do you find Food Trucks?
In Boston, the trucks have reserved places on a schedule set by the City of Boston. Here's a link to the City's Food Truck schedule.
There will also be new food trucks and food trikes on the Greenway. Here's a link to the updated information for the "Greenway Mobile Eats" program which will also begin on April 1st.
Update 04.27.13: Brookline has extended its food truck program and published this schedule for May 1st to December 31st 2013
Update 05.01.13: Somerville has announced a schedule of food trucks on Saturdays at The Assembled weekly craft market. Here's the list and dates over on Eater Boston.
We love the constantly updated information, including links to websites, provided by Hub Food Trucks! Thanks Steve Leibowitz for your devotion to this wonderful Boston community. Be sure to follow Steve on Twitter to learn when he's planning a food truck meet up. (That's Steve hanging out with the Mei Mei Street Kitchen team.)
You can download the Street Food App to have schedules at your fingertips.
And, when you find a truck you love and want to find it often, follow them on social media. That way, you'll find out what's on the menu. You'll know if they are off the road for a day, have a special appearance outside their normal schedule, or are getting ready to open a brick & mortar restaurant near you.
See you on the street!
