I\u2019ve got a notion to write a column all about patio dining now that the weather is more pleasant, but feel I\u2019d be remiss if I didn\u2019t also write about food trucks. They\u2019re a trendy al fresco option for those who appreciate chill vibes and the feeling of being in Austin without the three-and-a-half-hour drive.\u00a0<\/p>\n
There are countless food trucks in and around Fort Worth, many with a rotation of spots they can be found regularly. If you intend to check any of these out, you should call or visit their social media beforehand to verify their schedule.<\/p>\n
Modern Mexican street food at Flama Blanca<\/strong><\/p>\n Flama Blanca<\/a>, which serves from the patio of Tulips and Low Doubt Bar, participated in this year\u2019s Fort Worth Food + Wine Festival in the Tacos + Tequila category, with chef Jake Morgan representing the eatery. They also deliver via Doordash<\/a>, so diners looking to avoid parking on St. Louis Avenue have options when it comes to enjoying the Flama Blanca menu.\u00a0<\/p>\n According to its Instagram, this truck serves a twist on Mexican street food, namely elote salad, quesadillas, elote cups and a smash chorizo burger with bacon, mozzarella, salsa and tequila-braised onions. Some add-ons include roasted poblano and grilled onions, slow-cooked shredded pork carnitas and achiote-marinated grilled chicken.\u00a0<\/p>\n 112 St. Louis Ave., Fort Worth; 512-757-4417<\/strong><\/p>\n Late-night falafels at Sheisho\u2019s<\/strong><\/p>\n Looking for falafel at 1 a.m. but don\u2019t know anywhere that\u2019s still open? You do now, because Sheisho\u2019s off West Lancaster serves 6 p.m.-2 a.m. and is also available through Doordash<\/a>.\u00a0<\/p>\n They have falafels over rice or wrapped in Levantine bread, fried or grilled chicken, hummus, chicken tenders and waffle fries. There\u2019s also the Zinger, a chicken tender wrap with red pickles and house sauce in Levantine bread and served with a side of fries. If you\u2019re wanting a bit of everything, you can always go with the Kitchen Sink, which has \u2026 well, everything in one box and all covered in house sauce.<\/p>\n 2828 W. Lancaster Ave., Fort Worth<\/strong><\/p>\n Cambodian cuisine at Street Stick Bites<\/strong><\/p>\n The menu at Street Stick Bites in Watauga is small and simple, but isn\u2019t that usually what people want from food trucks? Simplicity?\u00a0<\/p>\n This Cambodian street food truck focuses on Khmer-style skewered meats of chicken, beef or pork. Their current menu isn\u2019t available online, but a late-March reel<\/a> on their Instagram showed a few other dishes on offer: fried rice bowls with beef, shrimp, chicken or a combo of all, and lo mein with either chicken or beef. Egg rolls were also served for 75 cents each or five for $3.\u00a0<\/p>\n 6124 Watauga Road, Watauga; 817-747-9047<\/strong><\/p>\n So much meat at Wicked 3D BBQ<\/strong><\/p>\n This barbecue joint in Pantego posts their schedule on Facebook<\/a>, so foodies know where to go when looking for Texas Twinkies, meat plates, brisket, brisket smash burgers and smoked chicken.<\/p>\n
