Food, glorious food; there’s nothing quite like it for soothing the mood. It’s essential, it keeps us alive. When it’s done well it can set off multiple pleasure receptors in our brains and stage hedonistic parties on our tongues. Yes, food is friend.
While food is predominantly all about the flavour, there’s always been an inherent willingness in the chef community to serve it in unusual and aesthetically-pleasing ways. Because, as the million cooking shows on television will tell you, food is not just about the taste but the experience that comes with it.
“…food is not just about the taste but the experience that comes with it.”
And so we come to the meat of the sandwich, the ice cream in the Viennetta, the jam in the hot scone; and present to you our compilation of the most awesome food vans in the world.
If you’re going to a music festival this summer, expect to see some of these dotted around the place surrounded by hungover twenty-somethings in wellington boots.
