We've seen food trucks become quite the place to satisfy your munchies — anytime, anywhere — and the movement keeps getting better. Ice cream and tacos now seem typical compared to some of the worldly bites these trucks have come to be known for. Curious to know exactly what lies beyond our local favorites, we took to Instagram to unveil the possibilities. One really can find anything the heart desires, from crème brûlée to lobster. Here are a few unexpected favorites we hope to see rolling through our town someday soon.

Dog Treats

Breakfast

We love the idea of hitting up a food truck for breakfast in Munster, IN. Rather than fried foods, Early Bird's vegan and vegetarian menu will kick-start your day on a healthy note.

Lobster

Say what? Yes, you can get lobster at a food truck! Red Hook Lobster Pound is a rather popular New York truck for fresh seafood and dishes like lobster mac and cheese.

It's not delivery — it's a food truck! We love how Vancouver's Pazzarella merges wood-fired pizzas and delivery with its mobile goodness.

No need to fire up the grill when you see Hank Daddy's BBQ in Ontario, Canada. Better yet, you can still enjoy your ribs, picnic-style, outside on a Summer night.

Ice Cream

It could be argued that ice cream trucks (like this one pictured in Manhattan's Central Park) were the founders of the "food truck movement." Although they've been around for years, nothing brings out a smile faster, now and then, than a cold cone and those classic tunes.
