I’m interested in seeing the “in action” operations of prepping the orders, what system/ order they use to assemble their food, how they handle cash and food serving at the same time of it’s a one man show, how they prep their station, how they keep the food warm and fresh…

There's so much more that I think he doesn't even realize that he does that has guaranteed his success. I honestly think he has a sixth sense for business. One of the keys is at the end where he says he does so many things by himself. He is interdisciplinary plus a people person. He knows what the costumer and employees needs to be comfy and knows the full operation of his truck inside and out. This is so impressive.

Even 3.40 minutes in this information is unbelievable. What a generous man Saied is to give away the secrets. Syrian and Greek food is quite similar but there are differences and the fact he sells both is great. Syrians have immigrated to Greece and Cyprus for the last few decades but not many people know that Greek Cypriots immigrated to Syria to escape Ottoman occupation and famines and droughts via small boats from the North of Cyprus. Will rewatch this many times.

This guy is a legend. And I always thought the same thing. One-item menu. Or at least a really simple menu. If you're gonna do a burger van, do like 3-4 burgers, and chips. It'll keep your ingredients limited to a very easy-to-control menu, even during busy times. The only difference being 2-3 meats, and a veg option. I've seen enough Kitchen Nightmare episodes to know that 20+ items on any menu is getting crazy. And a food cart should be very simple, getting right to the point. People come for convenience, and a banging product. They know the reason they are coming to your food cart. They don't need a 20-page menu. They just want their old faithful wagyu burger, or whatever it is that you do so well.

Yes, what he was saying is, an actual food truck thats mobile is more based on events, because if you move a lot on the weekly, its hard to build a customer base. Its like being a new restaurant every week. Not good for reliable income or building income. And waiting a long time in a place is before giving up because you havent "made it big" yet, find out what you can do to improve yourself. If the place has people, how do you get them to eat at your place. Also, can take time to build a reputation. if you panic and leave, you arent reflecting and you have to start over again building a reputation. So it makes sense. BH is exactly right. Its a good small time business idea.

I come here all the time! Props to the local gov for repurposing parking lot space next to city hall/transit center to build a high quality pod in the burbs. I believe historically a majority of food carts sit in city centers however I think this pod is a great example of an emerging trend to put a high quality pod in more suburban areas. Adding the diversity of food at the price point food carts do fills a really good gap in suburban areas and I could see that trend expanding over time.

@@UpFlip A key similarity would be both trucks focused on less expensive types of bulk offerings. The food truck I was at was a taco truck. Also, they were parked outside of a brewery which is key to the volume. I have seen other food trucks that are probably doing around 20k per weekend in revenue just based on the number of people in and out of the brewery

Food trucks is a better option, but damn food prices are keeping me home these days. Especially here in NYC. It is out of control. Then you have tax and tip. I'm staying home a lot these days and making most of the dishes myself and enjoying it as best as I can till this Tsunami passes. He sounds like a great guy and someone I would work for even though I am disabled. When he said if they are short, hook them up, when he said if they don't have the cash on them or forgot their wallet, hook them up. That tells me he is kind hearted and in the End that creates serious loyalty from said customers.

A LOOOOT of people are afraid to spend money on their business and cut out from their profits. They don't understand that, first off, it's an expense, so it's a tax write-off, AND it improves your business, it boosts sales, more sales more money, more money more locations, more locations more profits. Spend the money now, and profit later. Don't be cheap because your business is a reflection of who you are, and you show the world who you are on a daily basis with business. Also, your employees, treat them great, so they treat customers great. I always tell my employees to treat the customers the same way you'd want someone to treat their mother, with respect and hospitality. This will not only make them satisfied and recurring, but also they will share their experience and give you great ratings to organically attract more customers. Win-win. Spend the money.

@@UpFlip home made biscuits and gravy with eggs an hasbrowns all day everyday. But my mom! She can make some amazing brown rice potatoe salad also beef tips with gravy! Making me hungry. The name of the food truck would be called "Taste the Air" because when you smell good food, it's in the air and you follow your noise. Just a spin on the saying.

Also would be nice to know full breakdown of running costs so we know the net, I would assume the following Based on 600k revenue Wages (based on average of 3 staff at all times, I know he mentioned 2 in winter and 4 in summer but just to average it out) at $17 ph would come to about $200k per year. Rent and bills - 35k per year Food cost at 28% - 168k Advertising - 5000 So comes to just over 400k, leaves around 200k net.
