Illinois food truck switches up strategy to house call approach

June 2, 2020

It's tough to attract a crowd these days due to COVID-19 social distancing so one Illinois food truck operator is taking a new path to reach customers.

The LaPatrona food truck in Bloomington, owned by Karen Flores and her sister and father, is going where the customers are — into local neighborhoods by request, according to a WGLT report.

The nearly one-year-old truck operation travels to several dozen families each evening, according to the report.
