It has quickly become Chattanooga’s favorite Friday outdoor lunch venue with nearly 20 different cuisines to sample. Food Truck Friday is back at the Kitchen Incubator of Chattanooga on Friday July 21.
From 11 A.M. to 3 P.M. in the area around the KIC, adjacent to Eastgate Town Center, it transforms into a smorgasbord of culinary choices.
“Food Truck Fridays have been a great boost to hungry workers in the Eastgate area but also to our food entrepreneurs enrolled in the Kitchen Incubator’s program. The ability for these business owners to prove their concept to an audience of lunch patrons in one convenient location is part of the learning process of launching a business,” said DeJuan Jordan, Co-CEO of LAUNCH.
“Where else can someone grab a quick lunch and have 20 different restaurants to choose from,” asked Pat Rowe, KIC Member Support Specialist and Outreach Manager. “If you have not yet been to a Food Truck Friday, I suggest you give it a try. Once you do, you’ll be back” Rowe said.
The Kitchen Incubator of Chattanooga is located at 5704 Marlin Road adjacent to Eastgate Town Center. Food Truck Friday happens every first and third Friday of the month. It is made possible by the generous support of TVFCU.
