Had enough street food news yet? Didn’t think so! Last Tuesday night was the premier of the Howell Mill Food Park (facebook/twitter), Atlanta’s newest food truck gathering spot. HM Food Park kicked things off with a full lineup that included Tamale Queen, The Mobile Marlay, Yumbii, Sweet Auburn Barbecue, Yum Yum Cupcakes, Hail Caesar, Westside Creamery, Slider U, Munch, The Pup Truck, The King of Pops, and the upscale vagabond Sugar-Coated Radical. The new venture is currently set to be a weekly endeavor with a rotating caste of participants. Better yet, if they can gain enough traction, the Howell Mill Food Park is hoping to be a mainstay as a daily operation.
Oh, and before we get too far into this, it should be known that I didn’t suddenly go all DSLR like Jimmy or instantaneously morph into Smetko. No, the reasons these pictures look so silky smooth is on account of one Laura Polmear. She did some hunting around the festival and was kind enough to provide Foodie Buddha with the kick ass shots. Heck, she even grabbed a shot of that lamb gyro I got to sample (more on that in a bit). Anywho, if you’d like to see the full scope of her skills, check out the Flickr Howell Mill Food Park set and then look at her blog. But I digress …
