Sizzler's Food Truck Hits the Street with ISISPOS

Sizzler’s has partnered with ISISPOS to bring the restaurant’s food offerings to customers on the go though the launch of a food truck line. One unit is already on the streets, testing the guts of hungry customers. “It’s a fun way to re-introduce people to Sizzler,” says Kerry Kramp, chief executive of Sizzler’s. “If they think we’re cool enough to do great food on a food truck, they may think we’re cool enough to check out our restaurants.”

 

The idea of running a Sizzler truck grew after the chain's chief executive, Kerry Kramp, saw people wait for nearly an hour to get food from vendors parked along Abbot Kinney Boulevard in Venice.

 

The new breed of lunch truck is aggressively gourmet, tech-savvy and politically correct. The Green Truck, which sells “sustainably harvested” fish tacos, roams the streets of Los Angeles in vehicles fueled by vegetable oil. The Dessert Truck in New York is owned by a former Le Cirque pastry sous chef who donates proceeds from desserts such as a pavlova with red fruit gelÉe to charity. In the San Francisco Bay area, the RoliRoti rotisserie truck serves free-range chicken, heritage pork and local lamb, prepared by owner Thomas Odermatt, a Swiss former organic farming student whose business card reads “Rotisseur.”
