“It’s so frustrating. We’re out here making money for the city but they make it really difficult. We’re a small business, man. Food truck people are people too. We’re not monsters.
“When you’re dealing with thousands of restaurants and only a handful of food trucks, it’s tough. And the mindset of all of these rules pits restaurants against food trucks …
“We got into this business seeing the fun atmosphere [food trucks] created that all these other cities enjoy. But it’s not fun. It’s become more and more stressful. At the end of the day, we’re all trying to make a living. We all have families.”
