Willcocks Street was transformed last Thursday afternoon into a food truck alley as Food Truck Eats: The U of T Edition served delicious food to hordes of hungry students.

The first-time event was organized by UeaT representatives Sarah Kahn and Suresh Doss, whose social media campaign via Twitter and Facebook brought over 1,000 foodies out to sample the treats.

“It is nice to see the city, and especially the younger generation, embracing street food culture in Toronto,” said food blogger Joel Salish on the Toronto Food Truck website.

Despite the great turnout, some attendees were disappointed since popular trucks like Cupcake Diner sold out minutes after they opened.
