Hopefully, if we keep having regularly scheduled events like the Food Truck Rally, Food Truck Frenzy and Hell’s Kitchen Food Truck Bazaar, maybe subsequent ones won’t get so packed.
We’ve been to L.A. twice this year, and they have regularly scheduled food trucks events there called Din-Din-A-Go-Go’s.  These are weekly dinners where you get anywhere from 5-10 different food trucks parked in empty parking lots, and they have plastic chairs and tables in the middle to sit at.  We went to DDAGG’s in Los Feliz, West L.A. (Culver City) and Highland Park so far this year, and there are ones in other places too.

When you have weekly food truck events, it becomes more of a regular thing to do, as opposed to a special event where people feel they have to attend.  With a weekly event, if you miss one, there will be another one next week.  At all the DDAGG’s we went to in L.A., no line was more than 3 or 4 people long, which made for a much more pleasant experience.
