Know Before You Go
1. Expect to wait in long lines. While the food is delicious, it does not come fast. Why? Its not fast food. These are restaurants on wheels. Plan to wait.
2. We (The Daily City) have no control over the speed at which the lines move. The food trucks themselves control that.
3. Some trucks will run out of food. This can happen while you're waiting in line.
4. Expect to experience 1 - 2 trucks. If you get to experience more, yay!
5. Think tailgating: if you want to sit down while in line or while eating, bring a chair. Some folks also bring tables or eat in their car/truck.
6. Some trucks do take credit, but many do not, so bring cash. Ones and fives (not tens and twenties) are VERY welcome by the vendors.

About:
TheDailyCity.com Food Truck Bazaar (Facebook Group, Facebook Event) is a recurring event bringing select food trucks from across Orlando together every other month in various neighborhoods to celebrate and promote Orlando's wonderful food truck culture. We hope readers will sample, taste, explore and see how fun and delicious street food can be, and what diverse offerings Orlando has to offer
History
TheDailyCity.com has been a proponent of food trucks dating back to 2009 when we started hosting food truck meetups called Taco Truck Taste Tests. We'd ask readers to meet us at trucks all over the city, one truck at a time, and try the food, explore new parts of the city, support small businesses The goal was to raise awareness of our city's food trucks.
Also in 2009, we took the idea of food trucks and thought, "If you can sell food from a vehicle, what else can you sell?" and launched TheDailyCity.com Mobile Art Show, a monthly show in downtown Orlando that takes place in a moving van.
In 2010, we read about the Hells Kitchen Food Truck Bazaar, loved the idea, but thought it was a bit too ambitious for us to tackle. So, we blogged about it and left it at that. In January 2011, the owner of Red Eye BBQ food truck suggested we were the ideal people to put on a food truck event like the gatherings happening in Miami and across the country. With his vote of confidence, we made an official announcement February 2, 2011 and watched it come to life March 29, 2011.
