The Cedars Food Park at Dallas Heritage Village (1515 S. Harwood St.) is holding its first recurring Thursday night event this week. After an inspiring initial offering a few weeks ago, they’re ready to become the first regular food park gig in Big D.
Thursdays are being coined as “Food.Fun.Fido” at the Old City Park, just south of the Dallas Farmers Market. (Beginning August 31, they’ll have regular Friday night service, but for this week, just Thursday.)
As previously mentioned, one advantage of holding a food truck party at the Heritage Village, is that the place is beautiful. Quite the hidden gem. You’ll probably be inspired to come back and take the full tour once the museum and tours reopen in September. But, the grass and large cedar and elm trees throughout the park lend the event something that a hot parking lot just can’t. (Sorry, parking lots. No worries, though, we’ll always love you, just in a different way.)
