Gourmet Food In Cebu Offered By The Big Daddy Food Truck

​A food truck is a large-sized vehicle with equipment to cook and sell food. The history of food trucks started with the Texas chuck wagon, which was essentially a mobile kitchen that prepared food for traveling workers in the United States in the late 1800s. Another precursor of the modern-day food trucks was the lunch wagon parked outside a newspaper office in Rhode Island. These food wagons eventually evolved into mobile food trucks that were nicknamed “gut trucks” or “roach coaches.”

These mobile food trucks provided meals to blue-collar workers in the United States at a reasonable cost. Gourmet food trucks emerged after some laid off fine dining chefs looked for ways in making a living. Food trucks eventually became trendy with the advent of social media. This trend was enhanced as the idea of finding the location of a particular food truck became a favorite activity of people in the big cities of the US.
