The World’s Largest Food Truck Rally 4

My family and I had fun at the rally. It was really too hot to stay that long, but we made the most of it while we were there. The number of food trucks here was insane! Too many choices and you couldn’t try everything.
Got food from Aloha to Go, Willy T’s Crab Shack, and Jamaica Jamaica. And then we were too full to eat anymore lol. Wish there were sampler sized portions and prices available at the trucks so we could have tried more. Everything we had was delicious though! Will definitely have to visit Aloha to Go’s restaurant soon. And that Jamaican patty/​coconut bread.YUM. I believe they are based out of Orlando though.
Event seemed very organized. We were able to get our passes quickly when we arrived (thanks Candy!). There were plenty of garbage bins along the road. Got to say hi to some fellow Unilocalers while we were there and stopped by the Unilocal tent of course lol. Couldn’t stay for any of the performances unfortunately. Heard there will be another one sometime in spring of next year at this same location. Might have to check it out again.

Thanks to Unilocal I won tickets. Otherwise, I am confused why one has to pay for admission, than all of their food at the food truck fest.
I love this new venue since it is by the water. But seeing that it was scorching hot, there still wasn’t too much shade to be found.
I would suggest this be in the winter when it is cooler. I think it would be perfect in January/​February after all the holidays are over.
I would also suggest there be areas for misting tents if it is going to be in the hot months of Florida. That would help people feel more refreshed, and more inclined to keep going through. It’s hard for me to have an appetite if I can’t refresh somewhere close by.
I did get to try the Vietnamese coffee from the Phở truck. I loved it, but it was super small just because it was basically ice.
I also has the lobster roll from Surf and Turf. It was okay, but I didn’t love that it was mostly kale. My hubby had a burger from one of the trucks and loved it because he felt quite full from the fries and huge burger.
I have now had my fair share of food truck fests, and I am glad I have checked this off my list twice. (I was also at the one in the Spring at the Florida State Fairgrounds.)
This one definitely seemed to have more offerings. Some of my favorites that I also saw were Mmmbap, Mr. C’S Grilled Cheese, and Leanne’s Cheesecakes. They also had bbq, Jamaican food, Filipino food, Portuguese, & German, just to name a few.

The food truck rally was fun. Along with having an insanely overwhelming selection of food trucks and stands, there was live entertainment and a few other random stands. Most importantly, there was a beer truck!
Parking was not as scary as I thought it would be considering the Saturday Morning Market was going on as well. My only reservation with giving the experience a 5 is the fact that it cost money to attend. The entrance fee didn’t get you anything, and you had to keep spending money once you got in.
