LAS VEGAS FOODIE FEST CELEBRATES SUCCESSFUL WEEKEND

The Las Vegas Foodie Fest celebrated another successful weekend after an estimated 35,000 foodies passed through the gates at the Silverton Casino Hotel. Foodies clamored to try the more than 30 food trucks in attendance, including headlining truck White Castle, and celebrity trucks, The Buttermilk Truck, BACONMANia, and more.

The festival saw a continued increase from April as lines for White Castle remained constant throughout the three days. With an average of 20,000 sliders sold each day, West Coast Cravers showed up en mass to get their hands on the signature sliders.

Foodies from near and far came throughout the weekend to try the delicious dishes from 35 food trucks and 10 gourmet food vendors. The festival opened Friday, Oct. 18, with lines around the block of eager diners craving the opportunity to try samplings from each of the trucks. VIPs from across the Las Vegas Valley flocked to the Silverton Friday evening to indulge in exclusive food and beverage tastings from various trucks in attendance. The event benefitted the Epicurean Charitable Foundation of Las Vegas.
