The number of food trucks in Charlottesville seems to be growing every day. When last I wrote about them in 2011, there weren’t quite so many. Now, there are way more. I see them all over Charlottesville and frequently at Starr Hill in Crozet, but I tend to either not have the time to stop or I see the food trucks before or after they’re serving. But they intrigue me.
Life would be easier if all of the food trucks in Charlottesville had twitter accounts (here’s a list of the ones I found who are on Twitter) – better yet, if they’d update their twitter accounts and if someone would do a food trucks map (no longer available) …
Thanks to @CorcoranGroup, I’ve created a Foursquare list to which we can all contribute (no longer available). (Social media is great when it works; thanks Matthew)
After the break is a non-comprehensive list of the food trucks in the Charlottesville area, plus a Storify that led to the list. If I’m missing one, please let me know.
What do you think? Have a favorite?
Interesting, two Charlottesville places are trying to raise money on Kickstarter for their food truck offerings – Blue Ridge Pizza and The Flat Creperie – both of which offer delicious food. (I pledged a little bit to each as well)
Thanks to all who answered!*
* From a “how does information flow” perspective, I found the my tweet -> @RVABusiness -> @RobeyMartin -> @TheCville29 connection interesting, as in Charlottesville -> Richmond -> Charlottesville = answers. 🙂
Thanks to Charlottesville 29 for this list.
