No Comments on Getting along with the food truck fad – Here’s a list of Udaipur’s food trucks

Udaipur has seen an upsurge in the number of food trucks coming up these days and it is, with no doubt whatsoever, the most hygienic way to chow down on some of the best dishes without having to burn a hole in your pocket. While munching at food trucks is definitely clean and better, there are other perks to it too; as the lack of space in the city increases, and people becoming averse to the idea of sitting down at a cafe and chewing on food leisurely, food trucks gain significance. Besides, it is often costlier to rent a place and start from scratch.

Food trucks are a one-time investment and it’s just a lot easier and fun to drive around places exploring different spots of the town and giving the taste of your food to almost everyone. They are very cost effective in the long run. Food trucks have become a trending topic in the whole country and almost everywhere there is a growing inclination towards eating at these trucks that have rewritten a new page in the history of culinary evolution.
