After spending the morning at Fernbank Museum for their annual Reptile Day, I headed over to Piedmont Park for the Atlanta Street Food Festival. Tens of thousands of people came out to taste offerings from over 50 of Atlanta’s favorite food trucks as well as play games, do a little shopping and listen to live music. Although the lines were long and the sun brought the temps hovering in the mid 90s the food was delicious and numerous bands jammed on the main stage.
