Pop Up Food Truck restaurant?

Now that CocoWok, the Asian restaurant on Virginia Street, is gone, how about doing something new and different with the location? What if it was to become a pop-up restaurant for Food Trucks?

What if once a week, say a Wednesday, one Food Truck took over the location and sold their food for lunch. Each week it would be a different type of food and truck's fare.

The crew could come early in the morning and be set up by say, 11 am, and sell lunch from 11 to 2 pm and then be gone.

I mean it is easier for them to just drive up and sell out of their trucks, but since they cannot have Food Trucks in the Center Grove, this would be a way to fill the empty storefront and to have some of the different foods enter the Grove and share their specials.

Aside from Food Truck Friday, every week at the Coconut Grove Bank lot, the Grove is not permitted to have food trucks. We are always the last on everything cutting edge. According to this New York Times article, Paris even is entertaining food trucks now!
