In their announcement, they said that this past year had been a particularly difficult one.
“Despite our collective efforts, the year 2023 proved to be our most challenging yet. The relentless breakdowns of our food truck, coupled with adverse weather conditions leading to even cancellations, stretched our resources and tested our resolve,” they stated.
