He was joined by three others helping him work his truck at the Soboba event. Originally from Philadelphia and New Jersey, Philly cheesesteak is his favorite sandwich, so he bought the truck to test the Los Angeles market. After 30 years as a well-known fine dining chef, McClain got into the food truck business about a year and a half ago. McClain takes his truck to many special events, apartment buildings, tailgate parties, private events, and customers include lots of corporate clients for employee feeding. “We had a good turnout and the food truckers had fun.”
“Soboba staff was great and efficient,” McClain said. Many of the trucks are regulars in the Los Angeles area and Chef Jason McClain from Philly Jay’s Steaks rounded up several he knew to join him after he was contacted by SCR’s event coordinator Estephanie Vizcaya. More than 3,000 happy and hungry visitors attended the two-day event that featured a wide variety of eating options.
