When we first opened the hatch of our little retro food truck, we knew we didn’t want to play it safe. Most people would’ve launched with simple bites and coffee — but not us. On day one, we decided every single customer would get a hand-crafted smoked cheese and bacon jam smash burger, made to order. It was absolute madness in the best way. The grill was relentless, the prep endless, and we were running on pure adrenaline — but we pulled it off. That day set the tone for everything that followed: bold ideas, no shortcuts, and quality above all else.

Since then, we’ve grown, adapted, and pushed ourselves in ways we never imagined. But if there’s one weekend that still stands out as our biggest challenge — and proudest moment — it was the time we ran the eatery and catered a wellness retreat simultaneously.

The retreat wasn’t your typical gig. Each dish needed to be tailored, nutritionally balanced, and even colour-matched to guests’ individual needs. We split responsibilities — one of us stayed at the eatery, the other took the lead on-site — and somehow, between early mornings, late nights, and a million WhatsApp messages, we made it work. That weekend tested every bit of our skill and stamina, but it reminded us what we’re capable of when we trust each other and give it everything.

Moments like those aren’t just memories — they’re milestones. They remind us why we started this journey in the first place, and how proud we are of what we’ve built. Here’s to more burgers, more beautiful chaos, and many more years of doing things our way.
