@Cesar Perez SMH 🤦🏽♀️🙄yeah like everyone just opens up their own bodegas and food trucks every day like it’s easy. Are you unwell in the head if you think none of that boils down to being hard work?
@Lies the bathroom mirror selfie with flash and make sure you get the rug hanging where the towel should be🥴🤣
So this is the first I have heard of the copped cheese. Absolutely looked great. I’m out in Washington state. Great story, his moma can definitely be proud of this young man. And lastly, thank you munchies for doing what you do so well. Everyone have a great day 🌤.

I’ve had his food a couple times. Very tasty and hearty. Not looking forward to the long line that’s he’s going to have after this video haha. Good for him though.

Dude buckle up! Food looks delicious and now it’s going on people’s NY bucket lists. It’s on mine for the next time I’m there. Wishing you success from one restauranteur to the next.
If I ever go back to NYC, I’m seeking out this truck.
I hope to reach his level of notoriety one day with my Birria Truck ! Soon with a little hard work & faith 🙂
Love the family hustle, and tradition. I give moms props for her hustle during times when many woman wont work labor jobs.
