Restaurants on wheels coming to Hanover Park Touch-a-Truck

Food trucks will roll up to Hanover Park's annual Touch-a-Truck event from 9 a.m. to 1 p.m. Saturday.

Chicago area restaurants-on-wheels - a new addition this year - will join a fleet of fire trucks, police squad cars, snow plows and other vehicles during the free event at the Metra train station commuter lot on Lake Street.

"This is a great event to get behind the wheel and meet the hometown heroes that drive the cars and trucks that make our town run," Village Clerk Eira Corral said. "This year will be even better because you don't just get to touch the trucks, you get to taste food made in trucks!"

The lineup of food trucks expected Saturday are: Toasty Cheese Mobile Eatery, Tamale Spaceship, Chicago Cupcake, Calle Wagon, Mariani's Gelato Italiano, Grill Chasers, Pizza Via, Bridgeport Pasty, GiaVia Sweets, Salsa Truck, Babycakes, Gino's Steaks and Mario's Cart.
