It’s also an eco-friendly win: mobile kitchens use less power than a brick-and-mortar setup and leave behind far less waste than disposable-pan buffets.

Challenges: More difficult to obtain Certificate of Insurance documentation than it should have been. This should not require multiple follow-ups. Although the truck served the Mr. Meximum menu, it was a burger-themed truck which was confusing to some. Some found it objectionable that options seen on the displayed menus were not being offered. Some wait times were quite long as well, although most customers ordered in the same 45-minute window. Positive: Arrived ahead of schedule and the team was very pleasant to work with.
