Nowadays, street food culture is extremely popular and trendy. The concept of having high-quality food on the go, outdoors, at more reasonable prices than at the restaurants, is very attractive and Geneva could surely not miss out - in fact, 10 food trucks liven up its food scene every day!
Each food truck offers different types of food to please every appetite: from Mexican to Italian, from Asian to South American, every dish made using local and genuine products.
The food trucks are open at lunchtime, from 11:00 to 14:30, to fulfill the high demand of Geneva’s citizens and tourists who are looking for some quick but tasty food to enjoy during their lunch breaks. The food trucks work on a daily rotation, covering all the busiest areas of Geneva.
The food truck system started in Geneva in 2014, with only 6 food trucks at the beginning. This grew to 10 in 2016, each one with a guaranteed “spot” for a period of 4 years.
I have personally tried out many of them and am still struggling to decide which one is my favourite, as they are all so mouth-watering and impossible to resist!!
Here, below, a list of all the locations you can find the food trucks at:
Place Simon-Goulart
Bel-Air
Chaumettes
Place René-Payot
Hollande
Pré-l'Evêque
Bd Carl-Vogt
Amandolier
Varembé
Kadzem-Radjavi
