Food Truck Rehab, a new Food Network show premiering on Sunday, 11 April, will follow Cousins Maine Lobster founders Jim Tselikis and Sabin Lomac as they share their expertise and ideas with struggling food truck owners hoping to bring their businesses back from the “brink of financial ruin.”
Tselikis and Lomac, who are cousins, aren’t unfamiliar with the spotlight of reality TV – they pitched their food truck business concept, which features lobster and seafood offerings, on the hit ABC series “Shark Tank” in 2016, and received backing from American bigwig businesswoman Barbara Ann Corcoran. Initially, Cousins Maine Lobster consisted of a single food truck in Los Angeles, California. In the years since Tselikis and Lomac appeared on Shark Tank, the company has expanded to 20 trucks in 13 cities throughout the U.S., according to its website.
