This Thursday, March 29th, ten food trucks will be descending on both the downtown and Scarborough UofT campuses. The lunchtime Food Tuck Eats event will bring the trucks back to Wilcox Common for a second time and out to Scarborough for the first time ever.
The event runs from 11:00 a.m. – 3:00 p.m. but if it’s as busy as last time, there’s always a chance the trucks will run out of food before the event is scheduled to end.
The event is open to the public so if you live or work in the area, make sure you stop by.
Here’s which trucks will be located where:
Willcocks Common on St. George Campus (map)
Gorilla Cheese
Smoke’s Poutinerie
Blue Donkey Streatery
El Gastronomo Vagabundo
Portobello Burger (Vegetarian)
Tiny Tom Donuts
ARC Quad on Scarborough campus (map)
Bonfire Catering
Caplansky’s
Cupcake Diner
Toasted Tangerine
The last time the trucks came to UofT, there were long lines and some students were disappointed when the trucks they had been waiting for ran out of food. Even though there are more trucks this time, we recommend going as early as you can and using the divide and conquer strategy with your friends so you can try as much food as possible.
