Utica Food Truck Specializing in “Farm to Truck”
This food truck has a cult following for many of its menu items, including shaved steak sandwiches, gourmet grilled cheese, and street tacos. They also ensure ingredients used are locally sourced from nearby farms or vendors.
Brake From The Grind started with the idea of providing fresh, locally produced food at an affordable price. Without enough cash for a traditional restaurant, Steve Malecki and Chef Darryl Hogan opted for a food truck, and it s working out really well for them. Malecki tells us, being mobile allowed us to gain maximum exposure in a short period of time. 80-85% of the product we sell comes from New York State.
