“We are overwhelmed with the amount of love we’ve received through this whole process. We started serving the Charleston area just three years ago, and in that time, we’ve gained the biggest, most supportive family,” said owners Steve Klatt and Brandon Lapp. “From one small food truck, to multiple trucks and a permanent location, you guys have been with us every step of the way. We only dreamed about being where we are today, and we are so thankful for your support.”
