Whew, what a day! Nom Nom Truck headed out to the 25th Annual Abbot Kinney Festival this past Sunday to serve our banh mi to the fine people of Venice and West Los Angeles! An expected 150,000 people were in attendance, and our truck and crew definitely felt the crowds! We had a great time out there, and the vibe and energy of the entire area was electric! We had lines from 10:00 am until closing down at 6:00 pm, so I think we definitely filled some hungry stomaches and introduced banh mi to some new people. Overall it was a great day, great business, great customers, and great company.
We arrived super early in the morning, before Abbot Kinney Blvd. was closed off. The festival set up a little side street specifically for food trucks, which was really cool. Fellow food trucks Gastro Bus, Baby’s Badass Burgers, Get Shaved, Cool Haus, Dosa Truck, Dough Dough’s, and Border Grill were all in attendance with us! (Thank you Dosa, Get Shaved and Cool Haus for the awesome food and treats!) I think festival visitors really appreciated the “food court” style truck parade we had going there, with a wide variety of foods and desserts right at their finger tips!
We’ll be looking forward to heading back out there in another year! After that 8 hour shift, we may need that long to recover!
Is there any more info on the Dough Dough’s truck? I can’t seem to find ANYTHING!! Help please!
thanks!
