The FIRST First Friday is finally here! The weather is at last permitting our beloved food trucks to come running back into our arms. No longer do we have to eat sad looking poutines while it snows outside. We can be gluttonous in the sunshine on May 1st, 2015.

The Montreal Food Truck Festival gets bigger and better every year, and 2015 is no exception. Held at the Esplanade Financière Sun Life at the Big O, there will be some 40 trucks participating, along with 55, 000 square feet of extra roaming room added this year for your enjoyment. There will also be a new drankin' area called the Buvette des vins d'Alsace et du Beaujolais that will offer 200 seats and 100 standing bar places in the shade where you can mow down on some good eats and chat with your buds.
