Food Trucks at UHD are Satisfying Students' Hunger


While University of Houston-Downtown is satisfying students who have a hunger for education, UHD’s food trucks are satisfying those students who have a hunger for food! Whether it is a burger, waffle, or Chinese food that you’re craving, one of UHD’s seven food trucks is here to satisfy your hunger! Happy Endings, The Waffle Bus, The Rice Box, Stick It, Kurbside Eatz, Bernie’s Burger Bus, and Coreanos are rotating the UHD campus throughout the spring semester to ensure that both students and faculty have the nourishment they need to finish this semester strong.
The Waffle Bus does not only serve waffles, but it serves waffles with a bang! With selections like chicken and waffles, salmon and waffles, and even s’mores, The Waffle Bus is sure to please! The Rice Box has traditional Chinese food, with a modern zing, even offering healthy alternatives for those who are vegetarians or health conscious. Stick It lives up to its name by indulging people with decadent foods served on a skewer! Kurbside Eatz has a variety of selections to choose from, including tacos, hamburgers, and eggrolls to name a few. While Bernie’s Burger Bus can give those who want a hearty hamburger, Coreanos offers unique food with a Mexican-Korean twist. Last but definitely not least, if a tofu hot dog sounds appealing to you, then Happy Endings will certainly impress you, specializing in Asian-fused foods. If you need a little “pick me up” to make it through the day or simply something on-the-go, the food trucks are on campus Monday thru Thursday, from 11am to 2pm. Many students are already indulging in what the food trucks have to offer this semester.

UHD senior, Janey Doe said recently, “I’m so glad the food trucks are here! They bring a little bit of excitement to campus!” Thao Nguyen, a first year communications major agrees, “This may sound pretty bad, but the best part of my school day is heading over to the food truck. Bernie’s and Stick It are my faves!” Janey and Thao are not the only ones enjoying what the food trucks have to offer. UHD faculty members and employees are often seen heading over to the food trucks daily. Regardless if you’re a student or faculty member, we can all agree that the food trucks can make anyone’s school day more pleasant!

Each week, we’re going to focus on the food truck that is visiting UHD campus for the week and will make it our aim to provide you with all you need to know about each food truck that feeds thousands of UHD students on a weekly basis! Happy eating!
