Food trucks have been a popular choice for diners since the 1950s, believe it or not. Think ice cream trucks delivering frozen treats to kids. The food trucks of today, though, are complete restaurants on wheels. And the new Ocala Downtown Market Food Truck Park may be just the place to go check them out.
Ocala’s Downtown Market Food Truck Park opened this past winter after Tito Comas, who manages the food park and owns Victorian on the Boulevard, happened to see a post on Facebook.
“A food truck park was going in at the old K-Mart location on 36th Avenue,” he says. “The deal ended up falling through, and the trucks needed to leave the area in a matter of days. I ended up calling the city and was put in touch with the Downtown Market to discuss the acre of property behind the Victorian. I thought it was the perfect location for the trucks, and within four or five hours, we had a deal.”
