Mobile San Diego Eatery Is No `Roach Coach'

Forget what you've heard about mobile food trucks because San Diego's MIHO Gastrotruck is certainly no `roach coach.'

SAN DIEGO (Wireless Flash - FlashNews) – The term “roach coach” doesn’t apply to one San Diego eatery on wheels.

The MIHO Gastrotruck is a mobile restaurant that brings healthy, environmentally conscious, and downright delicious meals to the San Diego area at affordable prices.

Founders Juan Miron and Kevin Ho made it their goal to bring fresh, handmade food to their city that would inspire a sense of community with all those who dine where they park.

And they’ve seen that already with diners sharing patches of grass and street curbs while sampling from the rotating menu that includes decidedly high-quality dishes like pulled pork sandwiches, stone fruit salads, and fish ceviche.

Miron says, “We want to change people’s perception of what eating food from a truck can be like. Eating from our truck is a great way to connect with the community and with the people making your food.”

Fans, known as “HOMIs,” are alerted of the trucks location via Twitter and Facebook.
