Are you ready to enjoy a street food feast?
Anyone who thinks that they don't like street food should take a moment to rethink their tastes. The world is full of gourmet food trucks - pickup trucks which move around the world, distributing mostly greasy, high calorie food which is perfect for anyone who wants to fill their stomach and spend a good quarter of an hour in complete ecstasy.
Researching this topic was difficult, and choosing the best gourmet food trucks from around the world has been even more challenging, however with a full belly and a happy smile, we can now present the 10 that we finally chose!
LOTUS FOOD TRUCK - CAPE TOWN, SOUTH AFRICA
Let's start with Cape Town in South Africa, where you can find the striped red and white Lotus Food Truck. Here, you can enjoy spectacular Asian food which is freshly prepared each day, even the sauces. And there is also Vietnamese coffee!
MUMBAI ROLLING KITCHEN - Airoli, MUMBAI
From Asian food in Cape Town, we move to Mumbai for rolled flatbreads stuffed with chicken, and grilled sandwiches with all kinds of fillings. You must try the Mumbai Shahi Wrap, with its filling of tandoori chicken, onions, tomatoes, spiced omelette and mint sauce! Alternatively, try the Mumbai Rolling Kitchen Burger with its filling of grilled chicken, fried eggs, cheese and sauce.
P.A. & GARGANTUA GRILLED CHEESE - MONTREAL, CANADA
Ah, grilled cheese! Warm, soft and extremely tasty, you'll never tire of eating it, especially at P.A. & Gargantua Grilled Cheese in Montreal. Not only do they offer classic grilled cheese, but they also have spicy variants and much, much more. Of course, you'll also find salad on the menu, but you're sure to want to order the house speciality!
PEKADITO'S- BARCELONA, SPAIN
Barcelona was bound to have a food truck dedicated to tapas, and this one specialises in seafood tapas. It would be a real shame not to taste at least one dish!
DE PIEPER MOBIEL - AMSTERDAM, NETHERLANDS
Amsterdam couldn't be left out of the list of cities with the best food trucks in the world, and here you will find the De Pieper Mobiel, which serves hand-cut french fries, sausages and grilled vegetables. However it's best not to eat lunch here if you have a busy afternoon planned as you'll be too full!
VEGGIE PATCH VAN - SYDNEY, AUSTRALIA
Not only is the food here delicious, but it is also one of the most unusual food trucks on our list, made entirely from recycled materials with flower pots on its outside and all the byproducts of the food preparation process are turned into fertiliser. Although you can get burgers here they are made from zucchini and chickpeas with grilled tomatoes, herb mayonnaise, coriander, caramelised onions and spinach.
DIE Dollen Knollen-PUFFERMANUFAKTUR - BERLIN, GERMANY
This food truck is entirely dedicated to kartoffelpuffer, a typical German dish made with potatoes and eggs, fried in a pan. Heavy on the stomach, but a moment of infinite pleasure for the palate!
GUSTAVO STREET FOOD - BRESCIA, ITALY
We could never leave Italy out of our list of top 10 gourmet foods trucks so we chose one of the most authentic - Gustavus Street Food in Brescia, which is located in a beautiful fleur de lys van from the 1930s. Here you can enjoy meat and fish burgers, fried meatballs and cous cous.
THE BOWLER - LONDON, UNITED KINGDOM
The Bowler in London is completely unique - a food truck that is covered with grass, and which travels through the streets of London, serving meatballs. Once you've tasted them, you'll struggle to ever find better ones!
MS. CHEEZIOUS MADE FRESH GRILLED CHEESE - MIAMI, USA
Ms. Cheezious in Miami offers as many as 17 kinds of grilled cheese, 18 if you count the create you own option. What can you put in it? Jalapeños, onions, American cheese and even crab salad! There is also a sweet version, called Sweet Meltdown, made from cottage cheese and orange marmalade on Texas toast with chocolate sauce on top.
