Big C’s Waffles

This food truck is currently traveling between Durham and Raleigh serving up the new Southern Tradition, Chicken and Waffles.  The waffles can be customized to different flavors like Red Velvet, Donut, and Pecan.  All can be topped with Chicken or you can add eggs and such.  Big C is more active on Facebook and Instagram, but you can follow them @bigcwaffles.

BullCity Street Grill

If you are in the Durham area, look for them on Twitter, @bullcitystfood.  Each week the food truck specializes a new cuisine, which include French Bistro, Italian, and Argentinean.  Usually on Friday or Saturday they park at Bull City Ciderworks and use the local cider in their menu.  I enjoy chicken tacos and wings using Rhiz Up, Bull City’s ginger cider.  The truck is owned by Chef Harry Monds, is known in the Durham restaurant and catering scene.  You can also find more information on their Facebook page.

Cajun Persuasion

I missed an opportunity with this one at the Gouge Wrestling event in November at Raleigh Brewing Company. Based on what I have found, they are serving tacos and gumbo and has a connection with Jerry Stackhouse!  I’ll keep my eyes out, but you can catch them by following their Twitter handle @geraldgera12.

Charlie’s Kabob on Wheels

The Wake Forest restaurant now has a third location, a food truck.  Named Charlie’s Kabob Grill on Wheels, the food truck… If you are not familiar with the restaurant, check out their website and Facebook Page.  I don’t see a Schedule on their website, but they are scheduled for World Beer Fest in Raleigh, April 11th.

Chick Wagon

Caught them at Nickelpoint recently, thanks to Paul Prause (@paprause).  The menu includes spinach dip, casseroles, and sausage.  I enjoyed the buffalo chicken casserole, which was chicken with sliced potatoes and cheddar cheese.  You can find them on Twitter @chick_wagon and Facebook.  They mention they have Inman Park Apartments on their future schedule.

Crazy G’s

You can find the food truck parked at Duncan Junction off NC 42, which is just past the Wake/Harnett County Line.  Serving up breakfast and sandwiches in bolillo rolls.  In addition to the food, I enjoyed the family was genuinely nice.  Follow on Twitter (@CrazygsCGG) and Facebook. Thanks Paul Prause (@paprause) for the heads up!

Green Olive Truck

If you followed the scene closely last year, you may have recognized this food truck. Unfortunately, Hugh, the owner, decided to sell the truck. Though he found a buyer and truck is now owned by Craig (pictured) and will go through so rebranding from the original concept. At the Durham Central Park Rodeo in January, the truck was serving up food from The Peacock, an Indian restaurant in Cary. Briefly speaking with Craig, the food truck will serve Chinese cuisine after this transition.

Hao About Chinese

This past weekend I was able to check out “Hao’s Kitchen.”  Hao Hong and her husband are doing quick Chinese food with some interesting twists like Cheeseburger dumplings and Apple Pie dumplings. The food is served in traditional Chinese takeout containers and they sell Chinese drinks, too.  The food truck operates only only on the weekends and is just getting its wheels on the ground.  If interested,check out @haoaboutchinese or their website.

Jazz Shish Kabab

A new food truck that has rolled under the radar.  You may have seen on Twitter of a new food truck called “Jazz Mediterranean”.  Curious, as you may have been, Jazz showed up to Lonerider Brewing.  The cuisine is Egyptian and Mediterranean with the menu changing up each day.  I found the prices reasonable and the Kabab and Cheesesteak pretty tasty.  It is operated by a father and son team and recently added Twitter @JazzKabab to find them.

Lucky Dogs

This food truck sits primarily at Lucky B’s on Tucker Street in the Glenwood South district.  However, I did see they were out at Brewgaloo 2015.  You can see their Facebook Page for details.

OMG Chicken

Glad to see more breadth coming to the food truck scene.  OMG Chicken is a Western African (Senegalese to be exact) truck that is posting a few spots @omgchicken101 and Facebook.

Rolling Bistro

This sandwich and entree truck comes with experience from New York, Florida, and the West Coast.  Both guys on the truck are named Dave, which makes remembering names easy. The menu seems pretty diverse from a slow roasted pork sandwich, mac-and-cheese bites, and shrimp and grits. They have been seen at the House of Hops and Nickelpoint Brewing, but they are slowly rolling out to a more complete schedule.

You can follow them @RollingBistro_

SoomSoom Pita Pockets

After Anthony of Baton Rouge Cuisine, Oren has to be the tallest food truck owner in the area.  Extremely nice and very talented, the food here is outstanding.  The focus seems to be on fresh taste with an open kitchen concept.  I am not familiar with Isreali cuisine, but the hummus and beef ragu had lots of flavor. I’ve been catching them at Hunt Street Market in Durham on Saturdays.  They also routinely show up at Cocoa Cinnamon. Follow them @SoomsoomPita and Facebook to catch them at their next stop.

Ty’s All Natural

Thanks to Paul Prause (@paprause) for the heads up on a new food truck hitting the streets.  I found they were at one of my lunch spots recently and was able to try out Ty’s All Natural.  I enjoyed waffled chicken, which was chicken dipped in waffle batter.  Also on that day was a burger and couple other options (one included a salad).  I’ve noticed they are starting to post locations more now, so start following them on Twitter @TysAllNatural or their Facebook.

Little Mama’s Truck

H/T to Triangle Explorer for finding this truck.  The truck is now on Twitter (@YumLittleMamas), but also has a Facebook and Instagram profile.  The truck shows a base in Hillsborough, so maybe a far west Triangle coffee truck. Keeping it on my radar and will post updates as I find them.
