From gourmet doughnuts to bulgogi tacos, StreetEats explores the street food phenomenon that has swept across North America. An estimated 2.5 billion people consume street food each day, and cities such as Vancouver, Austin and Toronto have become hubs for gourmet food trucks and carts.
Canada and the United States rank among the top countries in the world where "street food" is a popular online search term. Thousands of food carts, chuck wagons and motorized food trucks have launched in North America in the last five years, bringing a refreshing take on street snacks. Chefs and aspiring restaurateurs are hitting the streets with globally inspired hawker-style snacks, from falafel to cupcakes and roti to fried chicken.
StreetEats focuses on this culinary movement, with local food writers sharing their top picks for the food trucks and carts worth visiting. Each StreetEats book includes profiles of over 30 food vendors, with recipes from many of the mostpopular vendors. Everyone knows the best food is street food.
