What a fast, delicious meal? Look no further than the food truck parked on the corner! Recently, food trucks have become a popular source of gourmet food on the go. They serve convenient, high-quality food at low prices.
One of these mobile restaurants, Chirba Chirba started serving food in August 2011. Their truck travels around Durham, North Carolina, and stops at different locations every day. Hungry food-truck fans can find the truck by checking the Internet for a daily schedule and even last minute changes.
Chirba Chirba uses their website, Facebook and Twitter to tell the public the truck's next stop. Chirba Chirba's four partners became friends at the University of North Carolina. They all love Asian street food and decided to start a business. Chirba Chirba, which means "eat, eat" in Mandarin, serves genuine Chinese dumplings and other Chinese dishes.
