The next generation of mobile kitchens roamed the streets of Los Angeles and San Francisco, competing with a small army of vendors with pushcarts and other street foods. They filled a need and provided a living for new immigrants to popularize their cuisines, and some great fortunes were made in the process. Please join culinary historian Richard Foss to learn about the innovations that changed our society and continue today. Email SBuehler@TorranceCA.Gov for Zoom link.
