It’s true! Montgomery County hosts a budding food truck scene and one of their first official parties is on Oct 5, from 11:30am – 2pm at the King Farm Farmer’s Market location (805 King Farm Blvd, Rockville, MD).  Food trucks that will be serving include: Suburban Bros, Corned Beef King, Cravin’ Cookies & Sweets and Carmens Italian Ice.

There will also be an array of activities, including Sumo-suit wrestling, corn hole, pumpkin bowling, miniature golf, pumpkin candle blowing races, gourmet cupcake decorating, cotton candy, apple stacking and candy jar counting.

Rolls On Rolls is an Indian cuisine food truck that, until now, had been operating in Montgomery County, MD.  That all changes today with their debut in the DC market at Farragut Square!  Free Mango Lassi’s will be given away with every Kathi roll today.

Truckeroo gets even busier at night! Here’s some pics. I’ll add to them as the night goes on.

These DC food trucks are serving right now at Truckeroo! Also, please sign up for the food truck association email list near the entrance!

Major props go out to LOWswimmer for the tip on a new food truck today! Blue Nine is on its second day of service and was found at Farragut Square today. The menu consists of kabobs & biryani. No word yet on Twitter or FB accounts, but I’ll keep you posted!

We all love the word free, right? Well, I’m happy to use the word twice in one sentence: This Friday from 11am-2pm @ Farragut Square (17th & K St NW), Sauca will be serving free, gluten-free sandwiches!  The event is being sponsored by Glutino and all sandwiches will be made with their Genius bread (pictured above).

A lot of food truck fans loved the post I put together listing gluten-free DC food trucks, so here’s some more info on the Glutino Genius bread for the uninitiated.  Unlike the main-stream bread loaded up with preservatives, gluten-free bread is found in the grocery store’s frozen section.  In the DC-area, Glutino bread is sold at Whole Foods and Yes! Organic Market.  Since the bread has no preservatives, so you keep it frozen and just microwave a couple slices at a time when you want to eat some bread.  I used to do that with normal bread to keep it fresh anyway, so nothing new there.  The thick slices of Genius don’t contain any of the other weird ingredients or high-fructose corn syrup and the calorie counts are about the same. Here is a link to their Facebook page.

I have a note into the event organizers on what kinds of free sandwiches will be served.  I’ll update you once I have the info. 🙂

Reminder: DC’s largest ongoing food truck festival, @truckeroo, is this Friday (Sept 30)!  11am-11pm @ Navy Yard/Nats Stadium metro station.  Check here for past event pictures and info.
