Last October, my family attended the Food Truck Festival when it came to our area. It was super-hot for a Fall day in New England, but the whole family had a blast anyways. It was our first time attending an event by the Food Truck Festivals of New England. I was amazed by the variety of foods being offered, from seafood tacos to grilled cheese sandwiches . . . fried dough to bacon-wrapped meatloaf. That was the part that my husband and I remembered the most. Our children probably found the face painting and the ice cream truck to be most memorable. In any case, all five of us agreed that we must return in 2012.If you have attended a Food Truck Festival in the past, then you may also remember that some of the lines could become quite long at times. To remedy this, rather than have every patron pay when they order, there will be tickets sold in advance, as well as on the day of the festivals.
