PRE-READING

 We think that maybe this truck sells fast food, or something related to this.
We can see some sticker of hamburgers, BBQ’s, or takeout food at a good
price.

 Yes, we think that this kind of business could make a lot of money for many
reasons: First, people can find from cheap food to upscale food, it means
that these trucks have a lot of variety of plates. Second, people nowadays
are trying to eat outside home specially in weekends because most of us do
not like to cook at home and later clean the kitchen. So, for these reasons
we think that this business could be a good option to earn money.

 No, in the most of the cases if is to order a take out food, we call to the
place and order our plates from home, but if we will go to this places and
share with family and friends, we stay and eat there.

2 (strangely): the writer thinks it's strange that the economic recession of 2008 was
created a new business opportunities
3(even): the food cart industry has been so famous that they also pulled out a
Hollywood movie about this
4(impressive): KOGI BBQ has a lot of followers of your Brand and a good
operation.
5(definitely): the social experience of talking to other consumers is important and
something valuable to the business

5. We agree with the author that the food truck business is a novel idea to make
food a different experience when sharing with others. It’s an economic business for
owners and people who visit it, trucks function as a unique and novel idea where
meals can vary and be different than in ordinary restaurants. For people who want
to start a new business, this can be a great opportunity for them, they can invest in
this business and this achieve through social media, grow your business and be
known everywhere you visit. It’s good to believe in one's ideas, create
entrepreneurship and achieve new goals.
