June 25, 201511 yr Hey everyone. So are any of you interested in going to this Food Truck Festival? I think it looks pretty legit. Here's a link to the website with some details. https://www.visitkingsisland.com/events/things-to-do/events-and-promotions/Food-Truck-Festival Who's all going? I'm pretty interested in the C'est Cheese truck
June 25, 201511 yr I think I may go to this, though I can only do Sunday due to having a concert on the 18th.
June 25, 201511 yr I go to all the ones around Dayton and its always fun to walk around and try something new. Of course you got to scope out what everyone else got and where they got it from before you decide on anything. I'll be going on Sunday pending how much I survive the concert on the 18th.
June 25, 201511 yr No, I meant I'm in a band that has a concert elsewhere on the 18th. Kings Island won't have one.
June 26, 201511 yr I went to one food truck festival in Loveland. The trucks were overwhelmed by the volume of customers. The lines for the popular trucks were around an hour long, and some trucks ran out of ingredients to make their dishes. The Pizza Hut in the parking lot took advantage of the surplus of hungry money spenders by having a special for medium pepperoni pies. I have tried, and liked food trucks on several occasions, but these truck rallies are not their optimal venue, in my limited experience , that is.

I had a similar experience with a food truck festival in Milford. Most of the trucks were sold out after an hour and shut down and left early. I decided on the slim pickings that were left and waited forever in line for them to take my money then after I already paid waited another hour to get my medicre quesadilla with half the ingredients missing from it because they were out. Not sure if it will be at this one or not but it was that Turophilia food truck in the airstream trailer that is always at the local festivals. Not good.
June 26, 201511 yr My current favorite food truck is the Horseless Buggy Eatery. They have my favorite burger, the Onion Straw Burger. If you'd like to follow them, here's their Facebook page: https://www.facebook.com/horselessbuggyeatery?fref=ts But, I will skip them if they have a line longer than 8 to 10 people long. While the burger is amazing, they're just 2 people making everything fresh, so it takes a while to serve each person. I've seen them at businesses where there is no line at all, but at these food truck rallies it's just not worth it.
June 26, 201511 yr I might depending on how tired I am. I'll have to work that weekend and don't know if I want to drive up to KI to stand in line at a food truck. Sent from my LG G3 using Tapatalk
June 26, 201511 yr Is Zombie Dogz gonna be there? If not, I'm not going. What is a 'zombie dog'? Zombie Dogz is the biggest food truck in Dayton with a ginormous following.
