Food trucks offer customers an extensive list of menu items, selling cuisine from all over the world. With innovative ideas incorporating foods from all backgrounds, food trucks are connecting the cultural diversity in Miami’s population with a vast array of cuisines. A sweet treat is right up the street when visiting Santo Dulce, a food truck that takes

Similarly, at Mr. Pepito customers get to sample traditional Venezuelan food combined with the flavors of Colombia and Peru. Authentic meals are incorporated to entice their customers to satisfy any craving for a fresh, traditional meal.
