Food Truck Friday’s monthlong celebration of all things asparagus will come to close when yours truly and other judges weigh in on which food truck asparagus creation is best.

Seven food trucks are participating in the Asparagus Dish Contest, a joint effort of the Pasco Speciality Kitchen and Washington Asparagus Commission.

The contest will hand out two awards at 1 p.m. May 27: Most Creative Asparagus Dish award and Judge’s Favorite award, which will go to the food truck receiving the most praise from the judges.

I am a fan of asparagus, so I’m looking forward to seeing how the food trucks make their mark with the little green spears.
