Food trucks are, of course, the pioneers of preparing take-out food. They have always had very strict hygiene regulations as part of their permit. They are also always on the search for great creative ways of offering patrons delicious meals on-the-go and have gone through the trouble of researching compostable and eco-friendly containers. Mouth-watering meals such as fresh lobster rolls, melty grilled cheeses, decadent burgers and comforting poutines await you. 

 

Keep checking the Street Food Montréal website for new events throughout the season.
