Don’t let summer pass without at least one bite to eat from a food truck. This is the true definition of “eating out”. Grab a quick snack or small meal from a vendor on wheels at a park, concert, farmers’ market, or Church Street Market and immerse yourself in tasty cuisine and the balmy feel of the Vermont summer air.
Even better, take a little trip around the world while you enjoy the moment right here at home. The variety of nationalities and cuisines represented in the local food trucks and carts is enough to make you feel like you’ve filled your passport by visiting them all.
Here are some of these international food carts, with details on what they offer and where you might find them. Some are right in Burlington, some are further away. And don’t forget that these trucks and carts are on wheels, so you may have to persevere in your hunt.
