A local favorite has been named the best food truck in Massachusetts.
The Chicken & Rice Guys’ food trucks were named among lovefood.com’s list of the top food trucks in every state. As you might already know, they’ve also got brick-and-mortar locations on Ferry St. in Everett, as well as Washington St. and Bedford St. in Boston.
Here’s what the people at lovefood.com had to say about the ‘Guys:
“True to its name, this halal truck (now with three restaurants and a whole fleet of trucks) was founded on the love of two simple but delicious ingredients: chicken and rice. Out and about in Boston since 2012, The Chicken and Rice Guys offer a small but wholesome menu. Decide between a rice or salad base, then load it with your chosen protein (we’d go for the grilled chicken, of course), seasoned veggies and a sauce to bring it all together (options range from creamy garlic to extra hot). You'll find their latest locations posted on social media.”
