I am not a big fan of fast food...when I think of fast food I think of McDonalds, Wendy's, KFC and the like. But food carts aren't always the greasy fast food that never sits well in your stomach. Many can have gourmet food that you would find in a restaurant...which is why we will stop by the 3rd annual Food Cart Festival that starts this Sunday and runs every Sunday from 12pm-5pm until end of September.
The Food Cart Festival is located at 215 west 1st between Olympic Village and Cambie Bridge. The site is next to the Seawall and a short walk from Canada Line's Olympic Village Station, the Aquabus Spyglass Doc, and major bus routes along Cambie, Main and West 2nd Ave.
There's much more to the festival than just your choice of over 20 food carts. There is live music, local vendors and fun for the whole family!
We visited the Food Cart Festival twice last year. We tried the best grilled cheese sandwiches, that were oozing with cheese. Looking forward to trying some more great food again this year!
Admission is $2, children under 13 are free. Family of 3 or more is $5
Vancity is a presenting sponsor for the event and because of this Vancity members get in for free. One of Vancity's core values is to support local businesses and that is why they have sponsored the Vancouver Food Cart Festival
