The city of Houston has more than 100 different food trucks roaming its streets. With all these mobile munchies, why not grab a date and sample some of what they have to offer? Here are three of the best to put on your to-do list. Although H-Town StrEATs has been referred to as the ugliest food truck in the entire city, it still serves up some delicious grub.
