Texas has a long-standing tradition of eating portable food (ahem, “taco”). And while there are ample brick and mortar joints for you to nosh at, why not fully engage yourself in the ATX food truck lifestyle with offerings that are truly transcendent?! Food trucks, food trailers, and yes, food carts can offer up a meal that is so drool-worthy, you’ll need a bib. Don’t believe us? Here are five Austin food trucks dishing out must-see street eats!

Biscuits + Groovy serves southern food done well, and done right – right here in Texas. Each of their meals are not only delicious and filling, but they’re named after musical icons…which is really quite groovy.

2. Torchy’s Tacos

The Cow Tipping Creamery can top your Friday, Saturday…well any day off with a sundae or a milkshake. You’ll need a double workout to break clear of on the calorie chart, but it’s an indulgence that you’re worth. Remember, it’s all in the name of self-care. *Wink*
