If you want a taste of Detroit’s eclectic dining scene, you should check out the Stockyard food truck. This new Detroit food truck is on the move and will soon be setting up shop at a banquet center near Eastpointe. Until then, you can dine with them in cool spaces such as flower shops and warehouses, or at a co-working space in Corktown. For now, you can try their meals as you browse their new website.
