Fast food restaurants on wheels rolling along

There's a food revolution happening, and people are taking it to the streets. Food trucks have been rolling into cities across America, serving everything from grilled cheese to schnitzel. Refuel at one near you.

Truck Stop: Boulder, CO

Best-Seller: "Short Rib Situation" Taco (sweet-potato mash topped with slow-braised spicy short ribs and caramelized onions)

Concept: Mobile Mexican feast. Three years ago, native New Yorker Rayme Rossello was considering her next brick-and-mortar restaurant venture in her current Colorado hometown. A trip back east brought to light the burgeoning food truck culture and she scrapped the stationary eatery in favor of the street. Her goal? To offer affordable Latin fare — $3 tacos and gorditas — prepared from start to finish in her hot pink kitchen on wheels, named Tina.
