"Gourmet food trucks. Often mistaken for "roach coaches", they're actually clean, quality restaurants on wheels, buzzing with impressive culinary activity. From lamb sliders to wood-fired pizzas, succulent porchetta sandwiches to sensational desserts, gourmet food trucks are taking most major U.S. cities by storm. Collectively they've become one of the biggest food trends out there, but Sacramento still hasn't gotten on board. Like the cupcake phenomenon, we seem to be a couple steps behind what's really trending in the food world." Stated by Poor Girl Eats Well's Kimberly Morales, and she couldn't have said it better!
But there's something here to help! SacMoFo is the new mobile food movement coming to Sacramento to be the official debut of Sacramento's Food Truck Movement! Now there've been great taco trucks around for years, but they were hard to hunt down and even harder after the City of Sacramento created a "30-minute and Move" ordinance. But the citizens of Sacramento will have none of that and have done everything they can to create a home for food trucks here, and they've succeeded.

"The vision for SacMoFo to have about 10-16 food trucks parked around the park. Inside the park there will be a few other street food vendors and booths from our sponsors. There will be no beer/wine garden because this inaugural year they don't have the funds or resources to make it happen. BUT There is no admission fee because you will be paying for food." - Catherine Enfield from Munchie Musings

The best way to show your support is to mark April 30th on your calendar and spread the word! It's sure to be an awesome event that will be fun for the whole family. Hopefully it will also bring about some serious changes in those city ordinances. We all want to see Sacramento revitalized & re-energized, and I can't think of a better way to start doing that than with something everyone has in common: a genuine love of food. - Poor Girl Eats Well's Kimberly Morales
