“There was a lot of anticipation we underestimated, and we were so busy for the first few months. It was absolutely nuts. Then it just continued for years, and ‘Meanwhile’ was a circus,” Senatore said. “We

On Tuesday, Denver reached a record-breaking 101 degrees. Food truck employees described the working conditions as miserable as they worked without air conditioning for hours.
