Vendy Awards 2010

Many of you guys have probably noticed the explosion of street vendors & food trucks across the USA (NY, LA, Portland, Austin). Food Trucks and street vendors have definitely become a part of my daily life here in NYC. From tacos to gourmet ice cream, you can get it all these days.
