1st Boston vs NYC Food Truck Throwdown

Back in October 2012, seven NYC food trucks were invited up to Boston for the 1st Food Truck Throwdown.

The big winner was Wafels & Dinges, but there were plenty of winners on both sides in various categories. As usual, the biggest winners were the people who got to try a bunch of food trucks they haven’t tried before.

Now a date for the sequel has been set.
