Triangle Food Truck News: Durham hosts rodeo this weekend

RALEIGH, N.C. — ICYMI: Pho Nomenal Dumplings is on Food Network’s "The Great Food Truck Race" Season 6. SPOILER ALERT from last night's episode: They are moving on to Santa Fe for next week’s episode. They squeezed by DiSO’s, a food truck out of New York City, by earning just $15 more than them.  The cool thing is Chef Dana Marie from DiSO’s is serving on Pho Nomenal Dumpling at this Sunday’s Durham Central Park food truck rodeo (event details later in the post!)

Captain Ponchos has had to push back its opening date until Sept. 10. The restaurant will be located in Chapel Hill’s Southern Village at 708 Market St.

This Tuesday, Bo “Gavin” Kwon of the Bo’s Kitchen food truck will takeover the Berkley Café in Raleigh as part of the Takeover Tuesday series.
