It’s a Dark, Confusing Time For Food Trucks
Food truck negativity seems to be picking up steam this week following the less than kind L.A. Times article on Friday. Bon Appetit posted a “I”m Sick of Food Trucks” article on their blog yesterday, and Tom Collichio called food trucks the worst new restaurant trend in a Metromix interview. But just to give you an idea of how confusing the scene really is… two days after the L.A. Times published their article about how the food truck business is on the decline (featuring the owner of Road Stoves, the biggest food truck outfitter in Los Angeles), they published a second article in the Business section saying that companies who make food trucks are doing gangbusters. Make up your mind, media!
