I Don’t Have Any Money,” He Said—But That Didn’t Stop the Chef

Andrey, a young chef with serious talent and even bigger ambitions, had always dreamed of freedom. He wanted to create, to

innovate, to break the mold. But working in a top-tier restaurant—with its high salary, renowned name, and patrons who’d

spend a fortune on dinner—felt more like a trap than a dream.

“The menu’s too out there,” he kept hearing whenever he pitched a new idea. The owners didn’t care about his vision or his

drive to bring something fresh to the table. Andrey felt like a part in a machine stuck in cruise control. For others, that was

enough. But not for him. He didn’t want to reheat tradition. He wanted to shake things up.

After yet another standoff with management, he knew he’d had enough. If the work no longer brought joy, what was the point?

The path ahead was uncertain, but it felt right.

The idea for a mobile kitchen struck unexpectedly. One day, walking through a city fair full of sound, laughter, and the clatter of

food being made, he saw a row of vibrant food trucks. They were bustling, open, alive.

No stiff rules. No “you can’t do that.” Just pure energy and creativity.

“That’s it,” Andrey thought.

He hadn’t felt that inspired in a long time. Food trucks offered freedom, low startup costs,

and best of all—immediate feedback from customers. It was exactly what he needed.

A month later, he bought a van. Calling it a wreck would’ve been generous.

The body was rusted, the doors screeched, and the interior was falling apart. But Andrey saw possibility.

He dove in with excitement. Painted it a bold orange to grab attention.

Slapped on a name he dreamed up over coffee with friends: “Taste on Wheels.”

A friend designed a quick logo that now stood proudly on the doors.

“The color says it all,” Andrey explained. “I want this to feel like something different. Something joyful.”
