One of the newest food trucks launching in Austin, Texas is all about Neuvo Progreso, which are Mexico-style sandwiches.

The food truck, called Lonche Bar, should be open by the end of the month, according to an Eater Austin report.

The sandwiches are made with bolillo rolls and can be filled with a wide range of options, including pork carnitas, minced beef, seared chicken as well as other items including cabbage and guacamole. The menu will also feature bowls, according to the news report.

The truck's founders and owners are Antonio and Karla Rodgriguez.

"Nobody in Austin, or even San Antonio, has these mini-lonches, so we decided to be the first to bring it to fruition," Antonio Rodgriguez told the news outlet. "We saw it as an opportunity to bring delicious street foods from Nuevo Progresso, Mexico to Austin, Texas."
