Our journey from Perth to North Carolina Post navigation Food from Trucks Today's Durham action comes to you from Central Park, near down town, where an epic gathering of close to 40 different food trucks took place to celebrate the Labor Day long weekend. For those back home the concept of a food truck gathering, or rodeo as it's called here, can best be described by my Mum who as I was explaining to her on the phone back in Australia said; "So it's like a food court on wheels." Exactly! It's a big thing here in the USA, but Durham in particular, to have these mobile food vendors who drive around town, advertising their location on social media, who then sell high quality cuisine from their trucks. It's great when there's one of them, when there are 40 of them in the one place rodeo style it's nothing short of epic! Part of the scene in Durham's Central Park for the Rodeo From Chinese style dumplings at Chirba Chirba to pizza at Pie Pushers, pork delights at Porchetta, ice cream at The Parlour, Asian delights at Hibachi and more it is a pretty crazy scene when the Durham food truck gang all gets together. For some of them their lines stretched for 100+ metres during the peak while by the early afternoon many places had sold out of their fare. It was pretty disappointing to miss out on the donut balls! Porchetta, who offered tasty Italian style pork sandwiches
