Food Truck Fridays continues this week at Founders Plaza in Downtown Arlington.

Leave your leftovers and brown bag lunches at home. The Arlington Parks and Recreation Department's fantastic Food Truck Fridays lunch series continues in Downtown Arlington.

This event will take place from 11 a.m. to 2 p.m. every Friday until May 18 at Founders Plaza, 100 W. Abram St. The park is located next to the Levitt Pavilion, just south of City Hall, in the heart of Downtown Arlington.

Each Friday will feature a new lineup of food trucks, allowing visitors the opportunity to taste and try out different fare. The food truck line-ups will be announced the Wednesday before each event at www.naturallyfun.org/foodtruck.

This week's tentative list of food trucks includes Egg Stand, Rockin Rooster, KB's Brats and Holy frijole.

And don't forget dessert! Pokey O's Tarrant and Steel City Pops will also be on site.

Attendees are encouraged to bring lawn chairs and picnic blankets to the food truck events, as seating is limited.
