DALLAS On Friday, a new, permanent food truck park will open at the corner of Maple Avenue and Mockingbird Lane, just blocks from Dallas Love Field Airport. Aptly named Fly-By Food Park, it fills the voids left by two other food park closings in Dallas.
On Fridays and Saturdays from 5-9 p.m., Fly-By Food Park will offer a rotating lineup of local food trucks alongside a vendor booth for beer and wine. Guests can dine on picnic tables located around the parking lot or take refuge from the summer heat in an air-conditioned building on site. (Heads up, that's where the alcohol will be sold.) The park will only be open on weekends at first, according Heather Kelldorf, venue management director for U.S. Food Trucks, the company managing the park. Kelldorf hopes to eventually extend park hours and days of operation to include lunch and breakfast throughout the week.
Fly-By is hosting two soft opening weekends June 14-15 and June 21-22, with free beer during the first. The grand opening celebration is slated for the following weekend, June 28 and 29, when there will be live music and more free beer. Trucks that will be present during the grand opening have yet to be confirmed, Kelldorf said.
The preliminary lineup of rotating food trucks includes Eat Jo Dawgs, Little Greek, Tuttas Pizza, Oink and Moo, Parrot Icce, Crazy Pig, Enticed, The Butchers Son, and The Lab of The Streets, as well as musical entertainment by the Durty Laundry Truck. Up to eight food trucks can fit in the lot, however Kelldorf said between four and five will be stationed in the area at one time.
