Lines at Rock the Garden 2012 snaked through the Sculpture Garden, as anxious festival goers waited to get inside to see the feature acts: Howler, tUnE-yArDs, Doomtree, Trampled by Turtles, and The Hold Steady.

We were there to check out the music and — of course — the food scene, which ranged from cupcakes to falafel and lemonade to beer.

Razz-Ma-Tazz and Betty Crocker cupcakes from Cupcake, Bacon Beer Brat from Chef Shack, and Ratatouille and Chevre and Pulled Pork and Coleslaw baguettes from Joe’s Garage.

    Really loving that events like this are increasing their quality food options, definitely a benefit of the food truck trend. Gone are the days when the only food options were mini donuts, corn dogs and the bland gyros.

    I promise to have my milktoast truck up and running for next years RTG. Caspar’s Milk Toasts! (nothing but white bread of course)
