If you value our work, please make a contribution today to help us reach our goal.Emanuel Romero Guzman, owner of Tostadas Food Truck, was born in Antigua, Guatemala."It's a mix of Mayan and Spanish culture, so that's what I cook.
He made the move to NYC in 2008, arriving with only a tourist visa, which didn't allow him to legally work. Despite that,"I wrote a bunch of restaurants, and one of them that replied to me was Mario Batali's Lupa," he recalls."I was like, Monday through Friday, eight hours a day for three months, you got me for free. Like an internship. They accepted me, and after a couple of months, I got my green card and they hired me. So I started at that kitchen.
In July 2020, Romero Guzman officially launched Tostadas Food Truck."The concept comes from the small size of the truck," he explains."Tostadas are a big part of my cultural background. In Antigua, women will come from the mountains with baskets full of tostadas and beans. It's very efficient and doesn't occupy a lot of space. So they set up in churches and on corners and sell two to three tostadas per order, mainly black beans and avocados.
