Street Closed for Food Truck Festival

Columbia Street in New Westminster was closed this afternoon for the annual StrEAT Food Truck Festival. Boy, it was crowded and still is. Some people may not be aware how cool New West has become over the last decade or so. It really is a fun location compared to neighbhouring municipalities.

For example, I noted a great many in today's crowds seemed to be millennials. Supposedly, this group values 'experiences over things'. That may be true, but I think many were interested in eating from an international selection of food items because their moms generally still make most of their meals!
