Ok, Yes, their first endeavor at a food truck festival kind of fell on it's face. But does that mean that when they get all the feedback and actually try to fix what was wrong with this year's festival you shouldn't go next year? NO!
We wanted to go when the sun was not shining because my husband is a redhead and we wanted it to be cooler. But we got stuck during the rush. And while we did get some good food while we were there, it wasn't worth the ticket price (but if the beer we drank was free, then it could have worked). Some trucks were prepared, others weren't. I'm not really surprised the the trucks that have been around longest were the ones that lasted at the festival (short leash comes to mind).
I was kind of disappointed that some of the trucks were handing out samples that aren't even variations of what they regularly serve. That bugged me.
The fry bread truck right near the entrance was fantastic and had a long line to prove it. They totally could have used an extra hand and maybe not have given people so many options. Just hand them the food and make them move on. That being said, the pork and green chile was soo good.
I look forward to seeing improvements on the next one. I just hope they don't decide to charge more than they did this year. It needs to be amazing to charge lots of money (I hear the festival in LA is like $75 to get in).
I just wish that every time we walked up to a truck it wasn't dark or had just run out. That was so lame.
