Counter Culture’s 20th Anniversary

It took me a second to think about this… 20 years ago was 1995.  Where were you in 1995?!  Well local roaster, Counter Culture will celebrate 20 years on Saturday, April 18th at Durham Central Park, 501 Foster Street.

Food Trucks: Pie Pushers

Pittsboro’s April Food Truck Rodeo

A food truck lineup has been announced with Bang Bang Banh Mi, Baugettaboutit, Bandido’s, Little Dippers, Red Eye BBQ, SoomSoom Pita Pockets and Belgian Waffology.  Bella Donna and Bear Creek Brews will also be there.  The event is April 18th across from the Pittsboro Road House.

Chatham Street Chowdown

It’s finally here, the Chatham Street Chowdown, Town of Cary’s Food Truck Rally.  I was at yesterday’s Downtown Cary Food and Flea (every second Sunday of the month) and the town has done a great job in the area promoting the event with  flyers all over.  Logistically Chatham Street will be closed between Academy and Harrison with 15 trucks and seating areas.  Which allow fans to move about the area and admire the quaint downtown and local business.  The event is Sunday from 12 to 4:30pm.

My tip: bring some friends and share your food at the new craft beer shop down Academy Street at Pharmacy Bottle + Beverage (they do have wine, too)

If this isn’t enough, check out what the Triangle Explorer’s got going on.
