Illegal Street Food Vendors Organize

The underground, un-permitted food cart scene is coming above ground as a group of illegal hot dog and cart vendors in the Mission are banding together with the help of street food advocates La Cocina. As SFoodie reports, the aim is to change local laws so these enterprising immigrants can cash in on the street food zeitgeist without fear of steep fines. On the upside: this means higher health standards. The downside: no more quesadillas sold on the DL out of a baby stroller. [SFoodie]
