118. Dean Roux - Truck Norris

I'm following my curiosity about people who make a living from food outside of formal restaurants again. This time I'm chatting to Dean Roux who owns and operates a food truck called Truck Norris. Apart from the fact that his truck has a legendary name, he's a really good operator who understands the landscape in which he operates and offers a straightforward product. Truck Norris does burgers. That's it. Burgers. (And there are fries.) His team is slick and the truck is popular. We chatted about running food trucks, what it costs to get involved, the bloom in operators and the merits (or otherwise) of that.  'Deano' took some time on his birthday to chat to me, for which I was particularly grateful, but it was also a great chat.Note for listeners: This episode was recorded in a busy coffee shop, so there's a hubbub of activity in the background. Hopefully you'll bear with us to get to the nub of a very interesting conversation.Truck Norris food truckwww.rwm2012.comOn Instagram @a_table_inthecornerCover image sketched by Courtney Cara LawsonAll profile portraits by Russel Wasserfall unless otherwise creditedTitle music: 'In Time' by Olexy via Pixabay
