I too, am powered by rice! A. Lot. Of rice. In my mind, there are three types of Chinese food — buffet Chinese food, westernized, chain Chinese food, and authentic, traditional Chinese food. They’re all completely different from each other and my stomach craves them all separately. Then I heard about The Rice Box Truck. A food […]
