There's a new food truck meet up in town: Truckit Fest will gather together dozens of L.A.'s food trucks at downtown Union Station starting March 6, and is slated to be held on the first Sunday of each month. But the real news? This event will feature table service.

That's right. The trend has gone from restaurants to food trucks to food trucks that act like restaurants. For a $45 V.I.P. option at Truckit Fest, you can order off a menu and have food truck food brought to you.

"The whole food truck phenomenon is now going to a whole new level," said organizer Phillip Dane. (He's the guy behind the L.A. Flea Market at Dodger Stadium, which came to a halt after it was rained out consecutive weekends in November and December, and is scheduled to return in Spring 2011.)

Dane said he was blown away by the frenzy surrounding the food trucks at the Dodger Stadium event. So much so, that some trucks were overwhelmed by the crowds and ran out of food. "That wasn't good. But that's when I started thinking that I need to do a food festival."
