“The Great Food Truck Race is still going strong and remains one of our most anticipated shows each summer,” said Betsy Ayala, Head of Content, Warner Bros. Discovery. “This season’s trucks drew massive crowds and excitement in each city – viewers are in for a fantastic culinary ride!”
The show features people who are currently food truck owners and those who have never owned or operated a food truck before.
Cooking with Que is located in the city’s New Center neighborhood and offers guests plant-based meals, and also offers meal prep and catering services and hosts cooking classes.
