Sam Barron, one of the owners of the Fat Shallot, a food truck in Chicago, tweets about the location of his food truck Friday, Nov. 14, 2014, so that customers could find it during the lunch time. He runs the food truck with his wife Sarah. Because of the restrictive food truck regulations in Chicago, food trucks could not park within 200 feet of a restaurant including Starbucks and 7-11, so there are not many parking spots for food trucks inside the Loop. This spot near 215 S. Clark St. is one of the best spots in the city of Chicago. Barron arrived here around 6:30 a.m. to get a spot.
