Richeeze Melts

What Is It?: Sorry to our vegan friends, but this food truck is all about the cheese. Grilled cheese to be more exact. Richeeze Melts is the culmination of the want for an amazing grilled cheese sandwich that we all loved as kids.
The guys who started it was sitting around talking about why there weren’t enough places to get a good grilled cheese sandwich and then thought, you know what, we can fix that. Richeeze was born and thanks Gouda-ness for that. If you haven’t checked out these gourmet food trucks, today’s the day.

The Poutine Brothers
Locations: Truck Calendar
What Is It?: Poutine Brothers has brought Canada’s national dish, poutine, to California. If you don’t know what poutine is, it’s a base of double-fried french fries topped with cheese curds, gravy, and sometimes meat.
They even source their cheese curds from Wisconsin – which is second best to Canada but unpasteurized cheese isn’t allowed to be shipped internationally.
Poutine Brothers was founded by Chris and Matt, two brothers who grew up playing club hockey and frequently touring throughout Canada. As kids, they discovered a meal in which french fries are a key ingredient… and it was love at first bite. They developed the concept for Poutine Brothers as adults, and after a test run among friends, realized they had a business opportunity on their hands. They promptly quit their corporate jobs in marketing and accounting, and Poutine Brothers was born.
They have all kinds of creative takes on Poutine like their short rib poutine or one that is inspired by Chicken Tikka Massala.
