  • There are some outdoor festivals that should be rained out. KKK rallies, God Hates Fags protests. Anything involving furries, LARPers, or furries and LARPers. The Food Truck Festival should be added to that list. Great idea on paper. Food. From. A. Truck. Nothing over $4 or $5. I'm so there. And who, as a child, didn't think the lunch truck that trolled your neighborhood was about the greatest thing on four wheels after the ice cream truck, the knife sharpener, fire/rescue vehicles, the cop car, and the garbage truck. What with is intriguing quilted aluminum paneling and side door that served out neatly wrapped sandwiches and Vachon cakes, who of us didn't spend every single day as child hoping beyond hope one of those trucks would careen onto our lawn, crash into our 100 year old oak tree and then we'd gently step over the dying driver and make off with a feast for a king. Yes. Food trucks. Food trucks are the in-thing these days in places like Vegas and the US West Coast. It's no longer about egg salad and individually wrapped May Wests. In some cities, drivers, many of them Korean, are getting highly innovative by fusing Asian cuisine with white trash carny food. But not in Toronto. Never. We're living in a city where council wants to micro-manage what kind of socks street food purveyors can wear. You're an asshole, John Filion. Seriously. You're the biggest asshole in Toronto. We could be eating kogis if it weren't for assholes like you on council. But thanks to huge assholes like John Filion the most innovate street food cuisine we've seen in the last 20 years has been the veggie dog. Yeah! So. Like I say. Food truck festival. Awesome idea. And it would have been awesome if: 1) there had been more than three main food trucks 2) there was actually space for the trucks and the line of 800 people that formed 3) you didn't have to spend 20 minutes trying to figure out where a line, any line, started 4) you didn't have to wait 30 minutes for the line to move 8 feet. 5) the Pirates of the Caribbean ride was found at the end of that line There were a few supplementary food tables with lines as long. But tables are not quite trucks. Needless to say after noticing our line had only moved the distance from my floor to my ceiling in half an hour we decided to head to T&T down the street for some real food.
