Madison Food Carts--Avocado Spring Rolls

The main spots in Madison with food carts are at UW's Library Mall and around the Capitol Square during lunch time. I think food carts rather than food trucks are more common here because they can fit on the wide pedestrian spaces and walks at those two sites.  According to the city's Food Cart & Food Vending Guidelines, "Full service food trucks may operate in Madison only at special events and/or if licensed to vend in City of Madison parks. The maximum size for a Mall / Concourse food cart is 56 square feet. Elsewhere in Madison, the maximum size for a food cart is 10 feet by 12 feet. The maximum height for a food cart is 10 feet."

Because I almost always eat at home or stuff I bring from there, I rarely eat at food carts. One of my favorites when I do try one is the huge avocado spring roll sold for $3 by Luang Prabang on Library Mall. 





During warm weather, food carts and trucks can also set up at some recreation sites in neighborhoods throughout the city, such as by a soccer field north of Sequoya Library early on Tuesday evenings.

So the penultimate picture is a food truck? I remember I once bought a hot dog from the food truck (if it is food truck) while I visited DC in August 2015.

And is the last picture avocado spring roll you mentioned above? It looks like Chinese Luo Mo Juan Cai (烙馍卷菜)

I think second from the bottom was also a cart, but I'm not certain. Food trucks are more common in other cities.

The pictures in the middle are of the avocado spring roll. It uses a thin wrap made from rice, and the insides differ from 烙馍卷菜.

The last picture is something from the middle east that is also different from 烙馍卷菜. I forgot its name.
