Food trucks?
There is a lot of effort being given to the fight against food insecurity. Pay-what-you-can restaurants are open and serving around the country in Colorado, Texas, California, and even here in Kentucky! Food banks are distributing food and resources to people around their communities all over the world. Communities are coming together and helping some of their most vulnerable, those facing food insecurity. However, there will always be gaps in service due to operation times, service area distribution, and limited resources and people.
In Louisville there is a collection of pay-what-you-can restaurants and shops in the Portland neighborhood, the Table being the most well known. However, there exists a gap in service outside of the Portland neighborhood because these brick-and-mortar businesses do not have the ability to bring their service to people. Instead, the people in need have to make their way to the restaurants. By taking the service and the pay-what-you-can model and making it mobile, Nice Food has the opportunity to serve people who could not usually access it in Portland and fill a gap in service.
We are a food truck so that people who need a meal do not also need a car to make it to our door. We want to meet the folks who need us where they are at.
