“2 for 1 Tuesday” - Nelson Mandela Bay’s latest Food Truck Event

Nelson Mandela Bay’s fleet of food trucks seems to be ever growing. It’s events like Food Truck Funday that have given them the much needed platform to grow their very own following like any reputable restaurant in town. Suddenly we see them featuring at events across the Bay, corporate functions and even weddings. Food Trucks are most certainly a trend that the Bay residents have lapped up and one that seems to be here to stay.

 

“2 for 1 Tuesday” is the latest item on the Bay’s Food Truck itinerary. It takes place on the first Tuesday of every month at Chicky’s Yard in the Valley. It’s a budget friendly, festive, not to be missed, night out in the Bay.

 

The latest event hosted on the 3rd of April saw a special appearance by the Red Bull DJ Rig, a hoard of food trucks and splendid Autumn weather.  The perfect backdrop for a wonderful event and the crowds didn’t disappoint.

 

 

 

 

Some of the Food Trucks that featured at the latest event included:

Fire Food

 

 

Chubby’s Food Mobile

 

 

Foongs

 

 

Taco Mia

 

 

Wafelbak

 

 

Beverages were catered to by two firm favourites in the Bay – Micoffee and Richmond Hill Brewing Co.

 

 

 

 

Last but not least, Rinki Beauty Nails and Hair Salon offered what has become a popular Bay market experience, beautiful Henna Tattoos.

 

 

The next 2 for 1 Tuesday event will be on the 1st of May. Be sure to put it in your diary, gather your friends and enjoy what is another fabulous night in the Valley.  

 

For more scrumptious foodie friendly ideas have a look at all the things to do and see in and around the Bay or pick up a Nelson Mandela Bay Pass Card and treat yourself and your loved ones to a Port Elizabeth Beer Tour or a gourmet picnic at Thunzi Bush Lodge, but if you have a pass, why not do both.
