I would assume, that the majority of the people live in areas where food trucks do not visit often or do not have easy access to the food truck park on Howell Mill.

Not really...the park was started because the city was giving the trucks such a hard time parking on the streets. It gave them a way to do business and the people a way to experience a bunch of different ones. I used to go all of the time but it's pretty crowded now.

The city should have just made it easier for the food trucks in general, but that's a different subject altogether.

Sorry folks. I didn't intend to revive a food festival thread. I just didn't want to start a new thread.

Please see my original post and make an effort to financially support the Piedmont Park Conservancy. Thank you.

And thats why I don't go anymore lol. When they first started they would have movie nights where they would put a projector out on the field in the park and people would hang out and watch movies. Now it's so packed that the lines are terrible. Used to be a hidden gem for a date night but now not so much.
