Sophie Wilson, Hitisha Chand, and Naila Alfi Syarifah will be taking over Taraka Kai tomorrow, serving empanadas they’ve designed for the food truck menu! ❤️ They made everything from scratch including the pastries. We rolled soooooooo many empanada pastries in the kitchen—it was quite a mission, but so much fun at the same time. It’s one of the best times to chat and still be productive.

Come visit the food truck tomorrow, same place, same time (11:00 am until sold out)!

14/10/2024

It’s empanada day this Wednesday - designed by HUNT444 students Hitisha, Naila and Sophie as part of their food truck proposal assignment! They believe that eating healthy does not mean your food had to be boring, it can be delicious and you can still aim to eat according to the Ministry of Health healthy eating guidelines. We can’t wait to try their menu this week!!

13/10/2024

Thank you to everyone who visited Taraka Kai last week, we loved seeing you all! Well done to Valentina, MacKensie, and Shilpa ❤️

Congratulations to Max, who won the free meal! You can also go into the draw for a free meal if you leave some feedback for the students ☺️

This Wednesday will be another student takeover, and it’s also the last food truck of the year. We’ll post the menu later today!
