Houston’s Newest Food Truck Park Will Highlight Black-Owned Restaurants | Eater Houston

"I'm describing a brand-new food truck park that aims to showcase Houston’s Black-owned mobile eateries; it opens Saturday, July 24 at 4 p.m. and will be located at 1615 South Loop West just south of the Loop from NRG Park and the Astrodome. A project from the Black Service Chamber, the park will host about 30 trucks, include a dedicated bar station serving beer and other alcoholic drinks, and is being set up in a former Sam’s Club lot with plenty of parking, more than 1,500 square feet of shaded seating with fans and misting systems, and family-friendly amenities. Diners can order from each individual truck via an app that shows estimated pick-up times, there will be a dedicated customer service booth, and organizers are aiming for a tailgate-like, low-cost meeting spot within walking distance of NRG Stadium and the light rail; once launched it will be open Thursdays through Sundays." - Brittanie Shey
