Thanks to David for emailing in a copy of a flyer being handed out in Rosslyn yesterday, notifying passerby’s that Rosslyn’s new food truck zone pilot will go into effect on August 17th.  The Washington City Paper has some more details, along with a high-resolution & color version of the flyer.  The Rosslyn vending zones differ from DC’s zones in two respects: 1) Instead of fostering development in current vending hot spots like DC has done, Rosslyn has created entirely different spots where food trucks may serve, and 2) Instead of creating a monthly lottery where any food truck operator has a chance at winning a vending spot, Rosslyn’s spots are granted on a first-come, first-serve basis.

The coveted vending location on N Lynn St halfway between Wilson and 19th will be no more starting August 17th, as the street will be reduced to 1-hour parking – not enough time for a food truck to setup, serve, and tear down operations.

The BID has created a survey for the pilot program.

Today, July 20, veteran DC food truck, TaKorean, is opening its 3rd retail location at 13th & F St NW! Full details:

TaKorean is thrilled to announce the opening of it’s first location in Northwest DC on July 20, 2015. The local fast-casual chain will debut an extended pop-up location in the Eat at National Place food hall located at 13th & F Street, NW.

TaKorean’s new downtown restaurant has entrances at 13th & F Street, NW and 1331 Pennsylvania Avenue at Freedom Plaza. TaKorean will have a grand opening on Monday the 20th and Tuesday the 21st. Customers who bring a friend on Monday and Tuesday will receive 50% off their entire order. Temporary store hours will be Monday through Friday from 11am to 8 pm and closed on the weekend. TaKorean will open on Saturdays at a later date.

TaKorean will serve it’s unique menu of Asian inspired taco combinations and bowls to consistently provide customers with fresh, healthy and delicious food.
