Sydney has a seemingly insatiable appetite for the food truck. And fans of tucker that comes kitsch and on wheels will be pleased to know there’s a new kid on the culinary calendar: Food Trucks After Dark.
As the name suggests, it’s all about bringing the best trucks that make food to you after the sun goes down. And they’re teaming up with the folk from Work-Shop, Redfern’s centre for stuff you’ve always wanted to learn but they never taught you at school (y’know, gelato-making, kokedama-crafting, illustrative hand lettering). Work-Shop HQ has just relocated the corner of Cleveland and Eveleigh Streets, and the food truck takeover sets up shop in its newly graffed-up car park every Wednesday and Thursday night. Expect a rotating lineup of all your old favourites, including Veggie Patch Van, Tsuru, Agape and Cantina Movil.
As for Work-Shop, it looks like they’re going to continue in the same vein of gloriously specific masterclasses. See: the basics of street art with Sid Tapia and pastry things with pastry chef/probable rockstar Anna Polyviou.
