Tasty Touring’s South Austin Food Trailer Tour This Saturday

This event missed the weekly roundup, and we wanted to make sure everyone knew about it. Tasty Touring is a local blog that recently did an East Austin Taco Bike Tour, but is now tackling the rise of the South Austin Food Trailer. RSVP via their Facebook page and join them by bike to check all the best mobile venues this Saturday.

South Austin Food Trailer Tour
Saturday, June 13
11 AM- 5 PM
Start Location: Chris’ Little Chicago, 3600 S Lamar Blvd

Event description:

Looking forward to Saturday! It’s going to be in the 90s and the Republic of Texas Bike Rally is this weekend. The three most important things you need to remember:

1. Bring/wear sunscreen
2. Wear your helmet
3. Bring cash

As always, this tour is self-guided and there won’t be a map so if you need one, make sure to review online and print to take along on the ride.

We’ll start at Chris’ Little Chicago on the west side of Lamar between Ben White and Barton Skyway and cruise up to the muffin bus outside of Taco Xpress at la Casa Drive and then Lulu B’s near Oltorf for some Vietnamese goodies.

Turn right on Oltorf if you like and you will see Good Seed Organic on the north side of the road. If you’re lucky, the taco bus that is sometimes set up on the corner of Thornton and Oltorf serves awesome Gorditas.

From there, we’ll split off into two gangs:

Gang A: South Congress Parade of Trailers
Hey Cupcake
Cornucopia
Crepes & Paninis
Vaquero Cocina
Mambo Berry
Armadillo Coffee & Tea
Roppolos
The Mighty Cone
Crepes Mille

Gang B: South First Badass Trailers
El Primo
Torchy’s Tacos
Shuggies
Treat
Izzoz Tacos
Holy Cacao

Still have room?
Cruise over to Molly’s Sno Cones and/or Flip Happy Crepes on the corner of Barton Springs and Lamar for something sweet.

Wait 15 minutes and then bike over to Barton Springs for a lazy afternoon baking in the sun and swimming off those calories in the wonderful pool!

For champion tourers, Giovanni’s on Lamar and Barton Skyway opens at 5 p.m. and serves delicious pizza as well as pasta. It’s BYOB so grab a sixer from the convenience store and chill!

See you there!
