Florian Conty and Rose Goret have just launched their food truck The Burger Family and have taken the road to two towns on the Picardy plateau where they delight locals with their comfort food.
This is a new catering offer that has just been created… While roaming. Rose Goret and her partner Florian Conty launched their food truck The Burger Family on the roads of Oise and Somme.
However, the couple had not worked in the restaurant business until then. The young woman was a caregiver. As for his companion, he worked in a factory, as a machine adjuster. “It’s something we’ve been talking about for a long time. We had this project in mind for about three years, explains Rose Goret. But we preserved our jobs because they gave us comfortable financial security.”
A twist of fate or a sign from the universe, her partner was laid off last May and both knew that it was now or never to launch their food truck. “We both wanted to work. My partner has always loved junk food. When it comes to making burgers at home, he’s the one behind the stove”sourit Rose Goret.
From food truck to plate
A passion that has been reflected since the beginning of September in the “plates”: burgers, American sandwiches, fried foods of all kinds… Picards enjoy the food truck The Burger Family. It must be said that Rose and Florian concocted their menu themselves, according to their tastes.
They source fresh products from Amiens and Creil but for hygiene reasons, the minced steaks are frozen. “We have undergone HACCP training for food hygiene”underlines the young woman. The duo even has fun with local products like maroilles which they make into burgers and American ones.
As for the truck, the restorers came across a gem: a second-hand… almost new with few kilometers on the odometer.
Soon other points of sale?
So, the couple has been traveling the Isarian and Samarian roads for more than a month. “We really enjoy contact with our customers. Now, we have been doing the services for a month and we are really very happy and satisfied because we are full every timecontinues the young woman. We go to villages that we know so it’s great and the customer relationship is really pleasant.”
If, for the moment, only three municipalities benefit from this service, the couple would like to find other locations and thus delight even more people. “For the moment, we go to the same towns every week. We are waiting for another authorization for Tricot”, concludes Rose Goret.
