Earlier this week, Theresa and I discussed how we both wanted to start blogging again. I was thinking about it and I don't know why I ever really stopped. In a city like Dallas there are 1000s of new things to try and see every week, so I am back and I am going to take you on a trip around my city.
First stop: The Trunk Yard
I have to premise with the fact that I had literally no idea anything about this place. A few friends and I were soaking up all the sun and good weather we could before it gets cool again by laying by the pool. We stayed until we were basically withering away from starvation. Finally after having enough of our moaning of hunger, someone mentioned hearing about a cool place where food trucks gather was suggested, I literally jumped out of the cabana and back into my clothes. My intense response hurried my friends and we were off to discover what may be one of my new favorite spots to hang out.
Situated just of the trendy Greenville Ave just north of Dallas. Truck Yard is a super chill place that has a rotating circuit of food trucks and a permanent airstream as a bar.
There is a tree house, a stage for bands or movie nights and a lot of lawn chairs and tables for people to sit in.
There was an Italian food truck, a sliders/grilled cheese truck, and a Chinese food truck. I, extremely typically, chose Chinese. I think I am actually addicted to Asian food. Is there a support group I can join for that? I ate this delicious "Bombay Chilled Chicken" from Bombay Chopstix and I cannot recommend it enough. Unfortunately there is not a picture, I'm sorry and to quote myself, "Too hungry! There is no time for pictures!"
But I did snag this picture of the my number, while I was waiting for my food!
This is the view from the tree house. Yeah, you read that right, there is a tree house. A tree house…at a bar. I know, right, this place is awesome!
It wasn't until we arrived that we found out that it was actually a bar. How cool is that air stream turned bar? It really keeps with the truck theme and I love it.
And all the marquee lettering? Could this place be any cooler? Probably not.
Yes, I am mildly obsessed with the Truck Yard. It is open Monday - Sunday from 11:00 am - 12:00am. Check it out!
