Note: The trolley is Washington Street Station is NOT operating, so I guess you are on your own with parking, which can be a little tricky.

I love this event because it’s pretty relaxed and it’s great to be able to go into the wine bar and chill after eating and wait to get hungry in order to get more food.  I took some friends there for their first experience with food trucks and they loved it!
