So the new trend right now, and one I am ABSOLUTELY loving, is food trucks. I don't know what it is, but there's something just fun about walking up to a truck and ordering food.

I talked Damian, the owner of Baltimore's very popular food truck. It's called The Silver Platter and is so popular that people wait in the rain to get delicious plates of food at very affordable prices. 

Here's what Damian had to say about The Silver Platter:

How did you come up with the idea for your food truck?
-->  We wanted to open a food truck that would offer on par with a nice restaurant but served out of a truck at a lower price.

What are the best selling items on your menu? 

--> The lobster roll, lobster mac & cheese and the brisket, also the pit beef we cook every day in the truck in our smokers.

Do you have any experience catering weddings?

--> We have been asked to do private parties but not a wedding yet. Our chef has a catering background and a culinary degree. We would consider a wedding and we would offer a full menu.

Since the chef has experience catering, The Silver Platter is an excellent option if you'd like to add a unique twist to your wedding. While your guests are waiting for you to arrive at the reception area, why not have a food truck there to serve your guests fun finger foods, like potato ribbons and truffle fries? Check out The Silver Platter's facebook for their full menu and more info!

If you like the idea of a food truck, but don't want one to cater the entire evening, consider having a food truck to serve your guests just a few items, like ice cream at the end of the night. Food trucks are versatile and can be incorporated into your wedding any way you'd like!
