Seattle’s Mobile Chowdown is headed to the Junction.
This Sunday, Oct. 2, 23 mobile food trucks from the streets of Seattle, and one from Walla Walla, will gather in West Seattle for the sixth installment of the collective feast.
Trucks will set up in the middle of California Ave. S.W. between S.W. Oregon and S.W. Edmunds from 11 a.m. to 5 p.m. for six potential hours of food truck nirvana. Admission is free.
Event organizer Michi Suzuki said they have brought tables and chairs to prior events, but things will be different this time around.
“Because we’re going to line the trucks down the middle of the street, we thought we would just let people roam the streets and they can always grab a table in the beer garden (provided by sponsor Pyramid Breweries) or sit down on the curb to eat,” Suzuki said.
For those uninitiated in Chowdown 101, Suzuki said vendors usually offer smaller portions than normal, so attendees can sample a wide variety of cuisine before maxing out the belly.
Suzuki is also working with Google Places to develop a contest of some sort, so there may be an opportunity to vote for your favorites.
