This is sad. The Yumbii truck used to come to my work neighborhood and I would eat there. But what is the point of me driving to a glorified food court? Please, Atlanta, set the food trucks free to roam about the city…
They have shaded picnic tables and the prices are good, not much selection other than tacos (Yumbii and Texas Tacos), went last week. Nice alternative, needs to grow in numbers and options.
Taco trucks and King of Pops in midtown on Thursday afternoons has become a great break for the not-so-hipsters in my office; people watching, meeting and greeting, and Consuelo’s tamales all beat leftovers and old coffee.
I am loving the King of Pops guy with his cart and cool pops, at the corner of North Highland and North Ave. most every afternoon. I also loved meeting his Mom and his dog!
King of Pops embodies the attraction of Food Trucks. Low cost of entry into the market and flexibility of schedule and location allow a talented vendor to bring his product to market and be a great success. Eating at a food truck is helping a scrappy rebel claw his/her way to the top.
That said, I had a wrap and a salad from one of the trucks that was pretty meh. If I happen back to the Stoveworks on a Wednesday, I’ll probably wait in line for the tacos.
I must say I just don’t see the attraction of standing in an asphalt parking lot with no shade and buying food.
It’s painfully hip. Some people just don’t get it.

Set them free!!!
It’s like Taqueria del Sol, only better.
