New vendors coming!
Like all things they change over time and we have some last minute additions and changes. It just means different food, different vendor for you all. Unless of course the vendor you were hopin and prayin and wishin to see is now the one who isn’t there.
As we lead up to this Saturday let us welcome the newest additions to the family: Tina Tamale and her fine meats as well as Faultline Pies of the East bay! We lost Strong Cheese, Red Circle Tea & Chile Lindo this round but they vow to return to a market soon!
The music is lined up, the food is all ready, we look forward to seeing all you old and new faces this Saturday! Note that after this June’s NTM, we will be moving the time back to 2-7PM.
Sincerely,
Michael D.
Spotlight on a Vendor: Doc’s of the Bay Truck
Today’s spotlight of a vendor is on our first food truck to join the gang. Doc’s of the Bay was a fellow food vendor alongside me at Bites OFF Broadway in Oakland. It didn’t take too long for me to start treading sammies for burgers, fries, and desserts from their delicous truck. Because of their loyalty to Oakland and Oaktown being my home, our paths crossed often and Zak and his crew never hesitated to hand me a burger wherever I found them. I felt like a lucky boy each time I saw their beautiful truck parked at some various venue just waiting for me to come say hi to. When I decided to implement just one food truck per #NTM event, they were the first people I could think of.
Doc’s of the Bay is just a little over 1 year old (I was at their bday party!) and have not just been serving delicious food but were also vocal supporters of updating and reforming Oakland’s mobile food laws. They attended many of the public hearings about the issue and thanks to them and the other loud supporters of the bill, it is now running a multitude of food pods pilots in Oakland, and Doc’s of the Bay is just one of the many food trucks you can find there and all over the bay area.
I encourage to follow them and their passion through Facebook,Twitter, and their website.
Make sure to mark your calendars for June 23rd so you will be able to try them and many other vendors which I will highlight as we near the re-opening of New Taste. To see a complete list of all the vendors participating in the June 23rd market, just click the May 2012 archives on the right!
