UPDATE 3.22.10 - Congrats to Hayley Richardson, and the Atlanta Street Food Coalition - Big article in the AJC on why Atlanta is falling behind the Food Truck curve. Read the ARTICLE HERE, and then sign the PETITION HERE.

Is the food cart revolution ever going to hit the Atlanta streets? There is tremendous amount of chatter on this subject, including Christiane Lauterbach elegant blog. I am sure that Twitter is absolutely the best way to read about this subject here in Atlanta, and the other popular trucks use Twitter, Facebook, and other social networking sites to narrate to their customers about locations, menus, and hours.

So in short order, we share our top 5 suggestions for food cart/truck ideas:

5. Tacos - Of course mexican is the starting point for any food truck community.
4. Sausages - Not just dogs, but Vegans, Chicken, Pork, etc...
3. Burgers - Could not pass this by; Grilled on charcoal - just like the backyard.
2. Fried Chicken - Southern style of course, the ultimate finger licking food.
1. Southern BBQ - This is practically the only trucks/carts that the city even remotely allows.

If you want to see food trucks in Georgia, sign this petition and visit the Coalition website. The goal is to reach 1,000 signatures - so SIGN NOW!

Thanks TFL
