An Extra Cool StrEAT Food Festival

This past weekend was a bank holiday in the UK - with lots of celebration before the school children head back to classes.  Locally, they had the first national food festival with ~40 food trucks from around the country descending on a nearby park.

Fun fact- the UK does not have open container laws.  This means you can easily bring a bottle of wine to a park for a picnic...just no "anti social behavior."  More on that below.  The StreEAT Food Festival had tons of delicious foods and drinks...and some of the vehicles were amazing!  For DC-ites, it was like Truckeroo on steroids...without the lines or frat boys.

Note the beer taps in this ski gondola!!!


Land Rover bar "the rovin bar" - a bit like one of my wedding events (HA!) 

Traditional VW buses as food trucks:


The festival also included beach chairs around the park...Alfie took full advantage:

On our way home...we saw lots of signage discouraging anti-social behavior (HA!)
