Outdoor Cinema Food Fest - Great times...outside!

Last Saturday I had the great fortune of attending the Outdoor Cinema Food Fest in my hometown of San Pedro, California.  The Outdoor Cinema Food Fest runs every weekend in July and August, each weekend there is a different movie, live music, and gourmet food trucks (not your average roach coach).  The food trucks included: Kabob n' Roll, Cheeseball Wagon, Crepe N Around, Rock N Ice, India Jones, Da Munch Box, Ludo Truck, Dogtown Dogs, and Nom Nom Truck.

The live music was performed by two So Cal Bands: Tangent ( from San Pedro) and The Howls (from San Diego).

Tangent

As it turns out the featured movie was none other than Edward Scissorhands. What's not to love about Johnny Depp and Tim Burton???  The two have done incredible collaborations over the years and this is the one that started it all!

The tickets were $10 at the door, but we were able to snag ours for $7.50 on Goldstar (we're always up for a bargain).  So we were able to watch a movie, under the stars, with great food - for under $10 bucks!  To make it all that much sweeter, it was so close we were able to walk from home!!!
