THANK YOU!!!!!!!!! To who ever it was that found my phone on the ground out in front of the Hy Vee on 4th and Court downtown. You are a saint and a blessing and I cannot repay you what you deserve for finding and turning in my phone to the customer service desk. I will definitely do my best to pass it on though!!! I had a full day scheduled and my phone was the only way to communicate to all involved. Whoever you are, you totally saved the day with one kind, selfless act!!!!!!!!!!

We are looking for some help!!!!
We are growing, and our taco stand needs some helpers! We pay an hourly wage plus tips. Average hourly pay normally falls between $20 and $25 per hour with tips, depending on business. We are mostly looking for Saturdays, both mornings, and some evenings. We do have occasional other days besides Saturdays.
If you are looking for some extra money and a fun, hard working atmosphere, please consider sending us a private message!

Buford - (yes, we name our vehicles, and the food trucks are no exception!) had a rough night last on the way home. It did not make it home on its own power, and had to be towed to the repair shop.

We were scheduled for “Lunch at the Landing” today (Thursday, Oct 5th). Unfortunately, we will not be able to make it there now.

We will be at our normal spot for the downtown Farmer’s Market this Saturday.

Not sure about the Taco Fest we were scheduled to be at this Saturday afternoon at Principal Park. We will post an update once we know more!
