Food Truck Mania kicked off Thrusday night in downtown Roseville with 10 food vendors and live music. Vendors included Krush Burger, Volks Waffle, California, Simply Southern Foods, Squeeze Inn Roseville and several others. Hero’s Last Mission preformed their rock/pop music, while several hundred people from Roseville and the surrounding area came to check out the event.
“We live close to here, and we come to Downtown Tuesday Nights, and I heard about this,” said resident Amanda Conchas. “We’ve never come to the food trucks, (so we thought we’d check it out).”
