East Bay residents cannot get enough of the gourmet food truck trend, so merchants like Berkeley’s mobile cupcake vendor Cupkates is ramping their production kitchen, Nick’s Wheely Good Breakfast truck in Oakland wants a part time employee for their busy season, and Emeryville’s LIBA Falafel Truck is reinforcing their crew, in preparation to opening a shop in Oakland in the near future.
Several food trucks are also expanding their business into the East Bay, perhaps to escape the city’s truck saturation and increased regulations. Currently hiring East Bay residents are: artisan flatbread sandwich maker Vesta Flatbread, Cuban sandwiches maven Ebbett’s Good to Go, and Asian fried chicken specialist ArKi Truck, while banh mi champion Nom Nom Truck hopes to find a niche in Walnut Creek.
Also hiring are 3 new East Bay trucks in the works: famous meat market chain Kinder’s is in the process of staffing their first BBQ truck; a no name & unknown cuisine gourmet food truck is in the planning stages; and a new Japanese crepes truck is in development.
Lastly, in the South Bay, MoBowl food truck’s hearty Asian style rice bowl meals, like the slow cooked five spice pulled pork, and the vegetarian bowl with grilled Umami tofu, have proven so popular that owner Will needs to hire additional staff, to cover more locations and boost dinner service.
