Buffalo's street food revival has been driven largely by food trucks and the city's market culture. Lloyd Taco Truck helped launch the modern scene before opening brick-and-mortar shops, and Food Truck Tuesdays at Larkin Square gathers the city's trucks into one weekly event. Older traditions persist alongside it, from Mighty Taco's quick counters to the Broadway Market pierogi vendors that anchor the East Side's Polish heritage.
