Food-truck scene, regular gathering spots continue to grow
MEMPHIS, Tenn. (AP) — On July 30, Joseph Toomey and a handful of his friends sat on benches at Court Square, some of them finishing pulled pork sandwiches from the Central BBQ food truck.
Regulars? Nah. New Yorkers.
They were here for a bachelor party weekend.
"We just got in town about an hour ago," Toomey said. "I didn't want to go to Atlantic City or Vegas, and we all love barbecue, so we came here. We were walking down the street and saw the Central BBQ truck and so here we are."
Talk about luck. Memphians hungry for food-truck fare often find themselves wondering where to find it.
Jessyca Davenport was also in Court Square on July 30. She pointed to an office across Second Street where she works.
