02:11

- Oh! - Holy shit!

02:13

- Snap! School bus!

02:14

- [Keith] Careful on that turn.

02:15

- [Kwesi] Wow! (laughs)

02:17

- [Keith] Oh, my god!

02:19

- [Kwesi] Hey y'all!

02:20

- Wow, wow!

02:21

- That's us!

02:22

(horn honks)

02:23

- [Kwesi] Hey!

02:24

- Someone order a bus?

02:25

(Kwesi, Jonny and Keith cheer)

02:27

- Big boy stomps! Big boy stomps!

02:30

Big boy stomps! - Wow.

02:31

That's amazing.

02:33

- Yeah!

02:34

♪ The wheels on the bus go round and round ♪

02:37

- [Jonny] Wow!

02:38

- Hello, I'm Candice and this is Phil.

02:41

We are the chefs and co-owners of "Man Eating Plant"

02:43

- [Keith And Zach] Wow.

02:46

- So many surfaces.

02:47

- We were starting to eat vegan we noticed

02:49

that there wasn't vegan food that we loved.

02:51

And so we started our food truck in 2021.

02:54

- [Zach] Your food is beautiful.

02:55

- [Phil] We have all these fridges.

02:57

This is like, a salad station.

02:58

- [Zach] Fire!

02:59

- [Keith] Whoa!

03:01

- I like that.

03:02

- I'm curious to hear

03:03

the difference between running

03:04

a brick and mortar restaurant versus a food truck.

03:06

- [Phil] So the advantages of having a food truck

03:08

are, you can go to the people.

03:09

So I do have a microphone

03:11

that you guys can use. - [Zach] Shut the (beep) up!

03:12

- I think, especially, in vegan food,

03:14

because it's on the side

03:15

of the street, a lot of people expect their food right away.

03:17

And it should be fast, I guess.

03:19

- How are we gonna film in here and cook at the same time?

03:22

- I'm way too tall.

03:23

I'm definitely gonna hit my head at some point.

03:25

- [Kwesi] It's like we're in a submarine.

03:26

- It's a very intimate space.

03:28

Just be aware of where you are

03:29

and communicate where you are.

03:30

I recommend coming in through that door,

03:32

but if you're coming in through this one,

03:33

just watch your head.

03:34

So many people go like this and step up

03:36

and just bang their head.

03:38

- That's why you have the bun, right?

03:40

- [Phil] (laughs) Yeah. - So its a little buffer,

03:41

- [Kwesi] For protection.

03:44

- It's vegan.

03:45

So everything you make does have to be vegan.

03:48

- Wait, really?

03:49

- [Kwesi] How is a food truck vegan?

03:50

- Can I just throw out,

03:51

if we're doing a vegan food truck,

03:52

"Zach's Little Vegan Treats."

03:54

Do you find that people are less

03:56

patient when it comes to a food truck?

03:58

- I do find that, yeah.

04:00

- [Kwesi] I got a idea.

04:01

- Okay?

04:02

- [Kwesi] Magic tricks.

04:03

No matter what we do.

04:04

- I actually think that

04:05

the one thing we were missing last time, is entertainment.

04:07

- Zach does know a couple about magic tricks

04:08

from our magic video.

04:09

- I know two.

04:10

- Maybe you could learn more in this time.

04:12

Maybe that's all you do

04:12

in this video. - I know this one.

04:14

- Is learn magic tricks.

04:15

- Do you have a salt shaker?

04:17

So I'm gonna, okay, so we're just gonna make it disappear.

04:23

- Whoa!

04:24

- Where'd it go?

04:26

We have a budget.

04:27

So let's get a magician.

04:29

- [Kwesi] Somebody with riddles.

04:30

- (gasps) What about that guy who did ventriloquism?

04:32

- [Kwesi] A riddler.

04:33

- A riddler?

04:34

- [Kwesi] Yeah.

04:35

- It's a bus?

04:35

- [Jonny And Keith] "The Magic Food Bus!"

04:37

- Come on, you guys!

04:39

I'll be Ms. Frizzle.

04:40

- [Kwesi] "Try These Nuts."

04:43

- It's not a bus pun.

04:44

(Zach laughs)

04:45

- [Kwesi] Damn.

04:47

- [Zach] Let's talk about the food.

04:49

We have to cook vegan food and it has to be fast.

04:52

- Yo, should we separate and conquer?

04:53

- My association with food, truck food, I think

04:56

of things that are very simple.

04:58

- We've had to adjust our menu a bit.

05:00

- Just the volume of food

05:02

that we're outputting, it doesn't fit all recipes.

05:04

- I think we should do two things.

05:05

I think we should do smash burgers.

05:07

- Yeah.

05:08

- It's just caramelized onions, Impossible burgers.

05:09

I already make those.

05:10

I know how to make them very, very flat,

05:11

so they're very delicious.

05:12

I think we don't need 50 pounds

05:14

of onions, but we might need 20 pounds of onions.

05:17

You know what's actually really good that a lot

05:19

of people don't do and haven't had

05:20

before is, peanut butter burgers.

05:23

- [Kwesi] Wow,

05:23

that's different. - Yeah, you can put

05:24

a little bit of peanut butter on a burger.

05:25

- [Kwesi] How you know all this, Keith?

05:27

- I used to work in a burger shop, in college.

05:28

- What about like, fries?

05:30

- 50 pounds.

05:31

- [Kwesi] Lift with your legs, not your back.

05:32

- Look, at these strong legs.

05:33

- [Kwesi] Oh, god. Dad strong.

05:35

- We can also make a simple like, pickled cucumber salad.

05:38

- A lot of cucumbers.

05:40

- [Jonny] But we don't have a dessert yet.

05:41

- [Keith] Deep fried Oreos.

05:42

- Plenty pf Oreos, because it's vegan.

05:45

- [Zach] You now what's really delicious

05:47

that I actually have made, barbecue jackfruit.

05:50

It's basically like a pulled pork.

05:52

- [Jonny] Great. Love that.

05:53

- [Kwesi] Jonny's gonna get bacon stuff.

05:54

Keith's gonna get vegan mayo.

05:56

- Are we on a sitcom right now?

05:58

- [Kwesi] I know.

05:59

- This is ridiculous.

06:00

- [Kwesi] That's not even real.

06:01

06:02

like, like "Slap My Bun", "Slap it On My Buns".

06:06

- Slap it on my buns ain't bad.

06:07

- [Kwesi] I like where you going.

06:08

06:10

"What can we smack 'em with?"

06:11

- Talk to me, Jonny. And we can say,

06:13

06:15

- [Rachel] Are you getting consent for this?

06:17

- Yes.

06:17

We'll say, "First of all, do we have your consent?"

06:19

(lively salsa music)

06:22

- How many people do you normally have in here?

06:23

- We've had up to eight people I think, in here.

06:26

- (beep).

06:27

- Eight people?

06:28

- When you're in

06:29

the food truck, how do you manage moving around?

06:32

- Well, people are placed in positions

06:34

and for the most part, you're staying

06:35

in your position the whole time.

06:37

- One person's gonna take the orders

06:39

and that's pretty much all they're able to do, right?

06:41

- So, like, Zach is living here?

06:43

- [Candice] One person flipping burgers, frying.

06:46

- So, Keith's on the grill here?

06:47

- Grill's over here.

06:48

- And then he goes wachow!

06:50

Someone finishes here.

06:51

- And then one person expediting.

06:53

- So, they have to really read that thing

06:55

and know like, this is a single burger, a double burger,

06:57

a peanut butter burger, a fried Oreo and fries.

06:58

- And then the other person plating.

07:00

- And I'm just running around like a madman?

07:03

07:05

07:28

07:30

07:33

This is too far down.

07:35

These fries are gonna go all over the floor.

07:36

- Okay.

07:37

07:59

I'm just getting lightheaded

08:01

'cause my hands are so cold.

08:03

- Sure, we can have fun,

08:04

but the fun needs to be directly related to the work.

08:06

Like see, how there's

08:07

like, meat in the garbage. - [Kwesi] Yeah.

08:09

No reason for that. - No reason for

08:10

that (indistinct). - Why would there

08:11

be meat in the garbage?

08:11

It should be on the ball.

08:12

- Got it.

08:13

Honestly, we should have used some of our budget

08:15

to hire another person.

08:18

Oh, you know what this.

08:18

- [Kwesi] You need a base, Jonny.

08:19

- [Jonny] Can we screw it in to something?

08:20

No, it needs to be anchored.

08:21

This would stop this.

08:22

The whole thing's pulling forward.

08:23

(slicer clatters)

08:24

- All right.

08:25

- And we need a drill.

08:27

- [Rachel] I don't know if we have a drill.

08:28

- What we do have is positive energy.

08:31

- [Keith] I'm not sure if we have that.

08:32

- [Jonny] I don't know if this is food safe.

08:34

- [Keith] It's definitely not.

08:35

- Holy shit, Johnny.

08:36

- It's a pallet.

08:37

- Nah, Johnny. (laughs)

08:38

No, Johnny.

08:39

- How about film clamps?

08:41

- [Jonny And Kwesi] Film clamps.

08:42

- [Keith] This guy here.

08:44

- [Jonny] Okay, should I try?

08:45

- [Kwesi] (beep) yeah, Jonny!

08:47

- I love it!

08:49

Oh.

08:51

- [Rachel] You know what they say, Jonny?

08:53

Slow is smooth and smooth is fast.

08:56

- Oh, yeah. I didn't know they said that.

08:58

Who said that?

08:59

- [Rachel] I say it to my toddlers.

09:00

10:13

Now back to (speaks Spanish).

10:16

Okay, Zach is here.

10:18

Good news, bad news.

10:19

- [Kwesi] Zach's back. Zach's back.

10:20

- [Zach] I had to go to Whole Foods.

10:22

It was the only place that had jackfruit,

10:24

which means we spent way too much on jackfruit.

10:26

Where is Zachy-Zach most valuable?

10:28

- Well, honestly, un-can all that jackfruit-

10:30

- And try it. - and start, yeah.

10:32

Getting it ready.

10:32

- The longer it goes, the better it flows.

10:35

- [Kwesi] I think I'm ready to start smashing some shit now.

10:38

Keith, that smells so freaking good.

10:40

- [Jonny] I'm making batter for our fried Oreos.

10:43

It's funnel cake batter.

10:45

- I'm just, I'm measuring with my heart over here.

10:47

The ratios are out the door.

10:49

We're making progress.

10:52

- Let me go around

10:53

and do some vibes.

10:54

- [Kwesi] Great.

10:55

- 'Cause the vibes are weak right now.

10:56

We need a lot of plants.

10:58

You can't have one plant per table.

10:59

You gotta have a lot, man.

11:01

This is all about vegan.

11:03

You think vegans would've one plant per table?

11:04

No.

11:05

Aren't they good?

11:06

It looks like a jungle out here.

11:07

So we're just setting up vibes just

11:09

so people can send me a little extra money.

11:11

Yo, the vibes are gonna be immaculate.

11:13

(Rachel speaks indistinctly)

11:15

- What?

11:16

- Come on, Rachel!

11:17

I got kids to feed!

11:19

- Whoo! How do I get out?

11:20

Okay.

11:21

(door thumps)

11:26

A secret door?

11:27

Oh, a handle.

11:29

- I'm gonna go turn the fryer on.

11:31

- [Camera Operator] Okay.

11:32

This says to open the valve.

11:35

(lighter clicks)

11:36

So, the fryer's on and now we wait.

11:38

- Keith is gone and it's quieter.

11:41

I think we're all kinda, we lost a Daddy.

11:44

- It's less scary, that's for sure.

11:46

- Put this in here.

11:49

So we're doing this because potatoes take (beep) forever

11:52

to cook, right?

11:52

When you're cooking breakfast potatoes

11:53

at your house and you're like,

11:54

"Dang, the potatoes aren't done yet."

11:55

So you do this so

11:56

that these get halfway cooked or par cooked.

12:00

When you cook them later, it only takes two minutes

12:03

and they're done.

12:04

It just allows for it

12:04

to be that crunchy, fluffy french fry that people want.

12:08

- [Zach] Keith, come on out! The sign's here!

12:11

- Yeah.

12:12

What's the name of your concept

12:12

for this food truck?

12:13

- Glad you asked.

12:15

- I'm here.

12:15

Okay.

12:16

We got our sign back from the store.

12:18

- Should we tear it open like Christmas?

12:20

- Maybe carefully?

12:21

- Looks like a giant blunt.

12:23

- [Keith] It's so big.

12:24

- Oh, yeah.

12:25

- Oh, I like the color already.

12:26

- You want me to hold one side?

12:27

Yeah, you hold one side, you hold there.

12:29

- Oh, shit.

12:31

- Wow.

12:32

- [Jonny And Keith] It's "Bun Buddies."

12:34

- [Keith] "We beat meat."

12:35

- [Phil] "We beat meat?"

12:36

- [Keith] Like, we beat it.

12:37

- [Kwesi] Ah!

12:38

- [Zach] Yeah!

12:39

- We beat meat!

12:41

- I love it! - We did it!

12:42

- This is perfect!

12:43

- What's our budget at right now?

12:45

- We're creeping up.

12:46

- Yeah, what's it at? It depends on how much...

12:46

I think we got...

12:47

Oh, you know?

12:48

- [Rachel] Luckily, the sign was supposed

12:50

to be $400 and they only charged us $90.

12:52

- Whoa! - Yay!

12:55

- We got $310 to blow!

12:56

- We beat meat.

12:57

- [All] We beat meat!

12:59

We beat meat!

13:00

- Bah!

13:01

- We beat meat!

13:02

13:29

What needs to be done?

13:30

'Cause I feel ready.

13:31

- Can we go through everything right now?

13:33

Just everything on the menu.

13:34

Make sure we're not forgetting anything.

13:35

- Smash burger.

13:36

- [Kwesi] Chef, consistency?

13:37

- Perfect. Beautiful.

13:39

- [Kwesi] Damn right, it is.

13:40

- Peanut butter smash?

13:41

- [Jonny] We have peanut butter ready to go.

13:43

- [Zach] We got slaw!

13:44

- [Keith] Mm, that's good.

13:45

We could almost serve that by itself.

13:46

- [Zach] Cucumber salad?

13:47

- [Kwesi] Cucumber salad.

13:48

- [Keith] Should be ready to go.

13:49

- [Zach] Fries? Got 'em.

13:50

- We should do animal style fries.

13:52

- No. - Okay.

13:53

- Stop. No new ideas.

13:54

- [Zach] Fried Oreos?

13:55

- [Keith] Got 'em.

13:56

- Got 'em. Barbecue smash?

13:57

We're just gonna slop some sloppy on top.

13:59

Go get some forks and let's try my pulled pork.

14:01

- It looks like pork.

14:02

- It's pretty good.

14:03

Sweet and spicy.

14:04

- Yeah, I added a lot of zing.

14:06

- Wow, a lot of residual heat at the end.

14:07

- Thank you.

14:08

- Is that a good thing, Keith?

14:09

- Very hot in your throat.

14:10

- That's fantastic!

14:11

- That's good.

14:12

- Yeah, man!

14:13

- That's good.

14:14

I can't believe, I mean I can believe you did that.

14:17

(Zach laughs)

14:20

(fire hisses)

14:21

- Whoo!

14:22

He was right.

14:23

It really comes out fast.

14:24

- This is my station. This is my world.

14:26

Check things off the list.

14:28

Order up.

14:29

Bing, bong, bong.

14:31

It's your boy, Brooklyn, holla.

14:32

♪ Martinelli is the champagne of juice ♪

14:35

- All the heat is over here, unfortunately.

14:38

It's all in this corner.

14:40

- Are we gonna have a traffic jam here?

14:41

If people are going to pick up their food?

14:44

I don't like this.

14:44

- Hey, guys?

14:45

- [Zach] Yeah?

14:46

- We have seven customers here.

14:47

- [Zach] Have we tested the microphone yet?

14:48

- Oh yeah, the microphone is Gucci.

14:50

Yo, yo, yo, yo!

14:53

Kwesi James.

14:54

- [Jonny] Can I run to the bathroom?

14:55

- [Rachel] You didn't go to the bathroom before this?

14:56

- Well I was, I did, actually.

14:58

- Ah, we got three people walking in.

15:00

Johnny just left.

15:00

Are you kidding me?

15:01

- [Kwesi] There you go.

15:02

- [Rachel] We invited the entire "Mythical" staff over.

15:05

(Kwesi laughs) - Oh my god.

15:06

- [Kwesi] Oh my god.

15:07

- I treat all my customers

15:09

the same, there's no VIP's in my eye.

15:11

- [Kwesi] Keith.

15:12

- Jonny just like...

15:13

We have three customers.

15:15

All right. - What is this?

15:16

Test, test, test.

15:17

Lets get the test outta here.

15:18

- [Zach] Yeah.

15:18

- [Rachel] Whoo!

15:19

- All right you guys we're cool,

15:20

we're relaxed, we're casual.

15:23

Hey, what's going on?

15:24

Welcome to "Bun Buddies".

15:25

How can I help you?

15:26

- The person taking orders is usually the one

15:28

that keeps the vibe up.

15:29

- First time?

15:30

- [Customers] Yeah.

15:31

- Well we got a whole bunch of good stuff.

15:32

We got smash burgers, peanut butter smash.

15:34

It's one of our specialties today.

15:36

The pulled pork.

15:37

Depends how hungry you are.

15:38

But take a look, lemme know when you're ready.

15:39

- That's a very special moment, right?

15:41

The first touch.

15:42

- We touch them?

15:44

- Okay.

15:44

Can I get the peanut butter smash?

15:46

- Peanut, oh, you're going brave?

15:47

- [Customer 1] Yeah, I'm going.

15:48

- [Zach] Yeah, it's cool.

15:49

It's weird. It's fun.

15:50

- Okay, weird and fun?

15:51

Okay.

15:52

And then the cucumber salad. - You got pb and S.

15:55

pb and S. - You got it.

15:56

- Connect with the customer.

15:57

You have a little time to connect.

15:58

Maybe they have questions

15:59

about your concept and your food.

16:01

- This says everything is vegan?

16:02

- [Zach] Everything's vegan.

16:03

- What is the pulled pork?

16:04

- The pulled pork is jackfruit.

16:06

It has it, pork-ish.

16:08

- [Customer 2] I'll do the barbecue pulled pork, then.

16:10

And an order of french fries

16:11

- [Customer 3] And fried Oreos.

16:14

- All right, that'll be out in just a few minutes.

16:15

Appreciate it.

16:16

- When you get a ticket we say,

16:17

"Fire one burger. Fire one fry."

16:20

And then the kitchen says, "Heard."

16:22

- Barbecue smash.

16:23

Cucumber salad. - Yeah.

16:25

- Barbecue pulled pork. - Got it!

16:26

- Order of fries. - Heard!

16:27

- And some Oreos. I'll do the Oreos.

16:28

- [Kwesi] Heard.

16:29

- Without the callback, without the communication,

16:31

then you don't know if your calls are being heard.

16:33

- I'm gonna make the salad.

16:34

- I can do that. I can do that.

16:35

- [Kwesi] Got it, got it, got it.

16:36

- Where's my season salt?

16:37

- Season salt, heard!

16:38

- So, it's a really tiny space.

16:39

So, just make sure there's no yelling

16:40

on the bus.

16:41

- Over communication is good communication.

16:43

Let's get a pulled pork fries as well.

16:46

The fries on fire? Let me know.

16:47

Pulled pork fries, copy that.

16:49

Thank you.

16:50

Fries!

16:51

- Keep touching the flat top with my fingers.

16:52

And it hurts every time.

16:53

- [Kwesi] Is Oreos on the fire?

16:54

Talk to me.

16:55

- [Keith] Oreos are not in the fryer.

16:56

- [Kwesi] Got it. Coming towards you.

16:58

- Let's not put everything all

16:59

at once. - Pulled pork fries?

17:00

Not at all. That's perfect.

17:01

All of this is waiting

17:02

for you, all right, my brother?

17:03

- Standard smash and something else as well?

17:04

- [Kwesi] Got it. Yeah.

17:05

Pulled pork fries.

17:06

Let me, light up fries for me, please.

17:07

Got pulled pork right here, Jonny.

17:09

How's communication going for you, Keith?

17:11

- It's, I need less repeating

17:13

of the same things. - My bad. My bad. My bad.

17:14

- It's like, really overwhelming.

17:15

- Copy that. Copy that.

17:16

- Whatever you do, just, no fighting.

17:18

- Maybe like, everybody actually try

17:21

to do their best so that fighting doesn't happen.

17:23

(Rachel laughs off-camera) (Kwesi laughs)

17:24

- Oh, no.

17:25

- Not just like, (beep) around - Its starting.

17:27

- and then, not just like, (beep) around and waste time.

17:29

One time. - One time.

17:31

- Suddenly, everyone's mad

17:32

at me because I'm mad

17:32

but honestly it wasn't really my fault

17:34

that we got there.

17:35

- It's okay.

17:36

Move on to the next problem.

17:37

- [Jonny] Hey, Keith, can I get a bottom bun?

17:40

- Here. - This is pb smash.

17:41

- [Jonny] Got it.

17:42

- Bottom bun. Watch it. - Thank you.

17:43

- [Kwesi] Yup. - Thank you.

17:44

- [Kwesi] Thank you!

17:45

The salad's done.

17:46

Hey, how you doing my friends?

17:48

Yeah, your order is ready.

17:49

17:51

Okay.

17:51

17:53

Nice.

17:54

Cucumber salad.

17:55

Barbecue pulled pork.

17:57

Does that complete your order?

17:58

(customers chatter)

17:59

- [Customer 2] Fried Oreos.

18:00

- I need fried Oreos.

18:01

- [Kwesi] Let me get that fried Oreos when they're ready.

18:03

All right guys?

18:04

You have a good one, all right?

18:05

Cheers.

18:06

- The smash burger consistency looks good.

18:07

- [Customer 1] It's smash.

18:08

That's smash. - Yeah.

18:09

- It's a smash burger.

18:11

Yeah, I just feel like the cheese peanut butter

18:13

like, mixture, is something I haven't had.

18:15

- [Customer 3] Okay.

18:16

- [Customer 1] I'm not mad.

18:16

- It's good. - That's good.

18:17

- [Customer 1] Pretty decent.

18:19

- A pb smash.

18:20

And what's the name for the order?

18:22

- Do you guys have a set amount

18:23

of time from like, order, to actually delivering the food?

18:26

- I would say 15 minutes is the, right amount of time.

18:30

- Fire me a peanut butter smash, please.

18:33

- Peanut butter smash, heard. Thank you.

18:34

- [Kwesi] Thank you!

18:35

- [Keith] So we got two burgers on right now?

18:37

- [Kwesi] Yup.

18:38

- [Zach] Yeah.

18:39

- [Kwesi] We got one pb smash.

18:39

- The vegan cheese is not gonna melt on its own.

18:42

We gotta trick it.

18:43

- [Kwesi] We got time.

18:44

- Over 15 minutes, pushing 20, is like,

18:45

the max we would ever try to go.

18:47

- [Keith] I got two burgers coming out.

18:49

That's the peanut butter smash.

18:50

- Peanut butter smash. Thank you. Keith.

18:52

- I mean, if you could do 10 minutes, I mean,

18:54

or less, would be even better.

18:56

- [Kwesi] See, I'm still waiting on

18:57

the peanut butter smash.

18:58

- Peanut butter smash does not have mayo on it, right?

19:02

- [Keith] Correct.

19:02

- And then lemme get one of those fries in the box.

19:05

- [Zach] All right, I gotta go.

19:06

We got people coming.

19:07

- Can I get a pickle on mine?

19:09

And then I'm gonna get a little onions on mine as well.

19:10

- We're cruising.

19:11

We got in the flow now.

19:12

- [Zach] Let me know if you have any questions

19:13

about the menu.

19:14

- So, what is the peanut butter smash?

19:16

- [Zach] Peanut butter smash is a smash burger

19:18

and we have peanut butter on it.

19:19

It's a little sweetened and you may think

19:20

that's crazy, but think about Thai food.

19:22

Peanut butter goes well, it gives you

19:23

a little extra protein, little extra sweetness.

19:25

- Add it on this and I'm waiting for my pb smash.

19:28

- Peanut butter smash. - Peanut butter smash.

19:30

Did you get the regular smash?

19:31

- [Kwesi] Pulled pork fries.

19:32

And a peanut butter smash?

19:34

- Whoo! This your lucky day.

19:36

We got it in the house.

19:38

(timer chimes loudly)

19:39

Have a good one.

19:40

Okay.

19:41

Good job team.

19:42

- [Keith] Awesome.

19:45

- My ex-boyfriend is here.

19:46

(intense choral music)

19:51

- How did that happen?

19:52

- Rachel?

19:53

- Jonny.

19:54

- This guy in the stripes.

19:55

This guy in the stripes is my ex.

19:58

- Should I hit on him?

19:59

Just to see how loyal he-

20:00

- Yeah, yeah, yeah.

20:01

Flirt with him and see if he, he flirts back.

20:03

- [Zach] So you want me to hit on him?

20:05

- Hit on him and see if he...

20:06

'Cause then if he he does hit

20:08

on you, then it means I shouldn't get back together

20:10

with him. - Is this like objective?

20:11

Okay, all right.

20:12

Hi, hot stuff.

20:13

- Hey there, how's it going?

20:14

- [Zach] Good, how are you?

20:15

- Doing well.

20:16

- [Zach] Looking fine on this day.

20:17

- You as well.

20:18

- Ask if he wants Jonny's eight-inchers.

20:21

- [Zach] And off the menu special today, we have

20:23

the Johnny's eight-inchers.

20:25

Fantastic.

20:26

- I've been there, done that. Thank you.

20:28

- Did he say "Been there, done that"?

20:29

- Stephen.

20:30

With a P-H.

20:32

- Zach, how'd it go?

20:33

Oh, they're still talking?

20:34

- What is your favorite movie?

20:37

- [Stephen] "Legally Blonde"?

20:38

- [Jonny] They're still talking?

20:40

- And then, could I get a phone number

20:42

for the order and for myself?

20:44

- [Stephen] Yeah, 9-7-8.

20:45

- That whore. That little whore.

20:47

That little whore. (hands clap)

20:48

I heard he gave you his phone number.

20:50

- Well yeah he gave me his number

20:51

and then he told me

20:52

that "Legally Blonde Two"

20:53

is better than the first one

20:54

and that we should watch it together.

20:55

- Oh my god.

20:56

This does not bode well for me.

20:57

- Is it hot in here or is it just Stephen?

20:59

- [Keith] I think we're in a good place.

21:02

- So, how many people can you serve in one hour?

21:05

- We typically can process and order a minute.

21:08

- Wow, that's like at least 30, 40, 60, even.

21:12

- In a minute.

21:13

- [Kwesi] It's a big bottleneck happening right now.

21:15

- [Zach] Well if you have any questions

21:16

about the menu, let me know.

21:17

We're famous for our smash burgers.

21:18

The peanut butter smash is what put us on the map.

21:21

- Okay, lemme get a double smash please.

21:23

- [Keith] All right, thank you.

21:24

- But you know, you run into situations

21:25

where it can take 45 minutes.

21:26

- Barbecue pulled pork sandwich.

21:28

- How's it going?

21:29

Welcome to "Bun Buddies".

21:30

We beat the meat.

21:31

- [Kwesi] Pulled pork fries, and pulled pork, on it.

21:32

- Fries and pulled pork? You got it.

21:34

- [Keith] It's hot, so hot.

21:34

- You know, something happens

21:35

and customers end up waiting 45 minutes to an hour.

21:38

- Oh we need ketchup outside.

21:40

- [Kwesi] Pulled pork fired?

21:41

- It happened.

21:42

I need more burgers!

21:43

- We need ketchup outside!

21:44

- I need more burgers.

21:45

- I got you Keith.

21:46

Where are the rest of our, oh.

21:47

- I'm in hell. I'm just in hell.

21:50

- It seems like morale is in a good place.

21:52

- Customers will wait an hour, two hours for food.

21:55

But once they order their food,

21:56

the time that they wait for the food

21:58

to reach their hands, they're way more impatient.

21:59

- We've been waiting for like half an hour?

22:01

- I don't know, 20?

22:02

- Maybe like 20?

22:03

Yeah, I'd say about 20 minutes.

22:04

- Guys, we're gonna run out of pulled pork quick.

22:07

A peanut butter smash, regular smash,

22:08

and a pulled pork fry.

22:09

- Thank you, heard.

22:11

- [Kwesi] I got a regular smash.

22:12

- I think we should tell people who ordered pulled pork

22:14

that it's small.

22:15

- [Keith] Yeah, it's hot in here.

22:16

It's about as hot as it could possibly be.

22:18

- Yo, Keith, I'm just checking in.

22:19

We got the double coming on fire, right?

22:21

- [Keith] Yes.

22:22

- Hello! Welcome, welcome.

22:23

- [Jonny] Keith, is there any more cucumber salad

22:25

than what's here?

22:26

- [Keith] No.

22:29

- [Staff Member] Keith, I just wanna let you know, we

22:31

just lost a customer out there.

22:32

- How?

22:33

- [Staff Member] He was waiting in line

22:34

and then he looked at his phone

22:35

and walked out and never came back.

22:37

- Do you think if we're getting like backlogged in the

22:40

kitchen we should like stop taking orders?

22:42

'Cause you said people are really chill in the

22:44

line before they've ordered.

22:46

Just, maybe the person who's taking orders can

22:48

just talk 'em up?

22:49

- Yeah.

22:49

- You know, totally.

22:50

- That is a strategy. - Be like,

22:51

"How you doing?"

22:52

Hey, Zach?

22:53

Zach? - Yeah.

22:54

Talk 'em up.

22:55

Don't take an order for a minute.

22:56

I'm very behind.

22:57

- [Zach] I've been exceptionally charming

22:59

so I don't know how much more charming I can be.

23:01

- We've implemented that strategy when we were really

23:04

in the fire, and buy me a few extra seconds.

23:06

Get to know the person a little bit.

23:08

Welcome to "Bun Buddies" where we beat the meat.

23:10

Is this your first time with us?

23:11

Wonderful.

23:12

Bobby Flay tried to beat us.

23:14

He couldn't.

23:15

Fuck you Bobby Flay.

23:15

So if they're being friendly

23:17

to me when they take my order, that's a strategy?

23:19

First of all, where'd you get that shirt?

23:20

'Cause that rocks

23:21

- At a thrift store.

23:22

That's no help to me.

23:24

Not only is it a very nice name.

23:25

I'm glad you didn't truncate it.

23:26

- You sold me on the peanut butter smash.

23:28

- You gonna go home and say

23:29

that I could have tried that and you didn't?

23:31

Okay, and what was your favorite band?

23:32

- Band?

23:36

Five Seconds of Summer.

23:38

- I played mistletoe with them once.

23:40

Yeah.

23:41

They didn't kiss me.

23:41

- Our front of house people, for festivals,

23:43

where it's just a line

23:44

the entire day for 12 hours straight.

23:46

They're usually in the front.

23:47

- So, you will, at festivals,

23:49

take orders outside the truck.

23:51

- [Rachel] Zach.

23:51

They said when they get busy to go down there.

23:54

Do you wanna go down there?

23:55

- So if our line's getting intense, get to the people.

23:58

Yeah, okay.

23:59

I'm gonna come down to you.

24:00

- I got a burger right here that can be dressed.

24:02

- Order up!

24:03

- I got two burgers waiting.

24:04

They've just been sitting here.

24:06

They've been sitting here.

24:07

They've just been sitting here y'all.

24:08

- Hello, hello.

24:09

Welcome to "Bun Buddies", we beat meat.

24:11

So we're a vegan restaurant.

24:13

- Can Zach come back in?

24:13

I don't feel like he needs to be out there.

24:15

- Peanut butter smash, which is exactly

24:17

what you think it's smash burger

24:19

with some peanut butter on it.

24:20

- We can only go as fast as we can cook.

24:21

So there's no reason to take 30 orders.

24:24

- Order up!

24:24

- Jonny, I need to put this over here.

24:26

- [Jonny] Okay.

24:27

- This is a double, I don't know what it's for yet.

24:28

Hold on. Hold on.

24:29

Jonny gotta put that on the ticket.

24:30

- This is a really good crew hoodie

24:32

and I'm sure I like a lot.

24:33

Can I see the sleeves?

24:34

- I don't like Zach being out there

24:35

because I can't hear what's going on.

24:37

- [Zach] Order up!

24:38

- 'Cause part of my workflow is

24:39

to listen to Zach.

24:40

- [Rachel] Zach!

24:42

- One moment I'll be right with you.

24:43

What's happening? What's happening?

24:45

I can't have you bringing

24:45

that many orders in this box.

24:46

- [Zach] I'm slowing down.

24:47

- Without having you

24:48

in here, I have no idea what's-

24:50

- [Kwesi] Okay, lemme get a double smash please.

24:51

- [Keith] Why do you need to be out there?

24:52

- Wait, is it a double peanut butter smash?

24:54

- No, just a peanut butter smash.

24:55

- [Keith] But I need the line to be slow.

24:58

- I'm slowing the line down by being out there.

24:59

- [Kwesi] Oh my God.

25:00

- [Keith] Cause ever since you left my life's been worse.

25:02

Can you just say yes to this?

25:03

- Okay. (laughs)

25:04

- The stress is definitely a lot.

25:07

- Can I give you a compliment?

25:09

- [Keith] Sure.

25:10

I think you're the MVP.

25:11

- [Keith] Hey, thanks.

25:12

- [Jonny] I got a barbecue pulled pork.

25:13

- Okay, we just need a barbecue pull pork, no slaw,

25:15

and this is ready to go.

25:16

- [Jonny] Got it, coming.

25:17

- [Zach] Guys, we are very much running behind.

25:19

- Pulled pork, no slaw.

25:21

Another fry?

25:22

Did we need more fries?

25:24

- I'm comin'!

25:25

- Oh, those are both tops.

25:26

- Oh, shit.

25:27

- [Keith] So just, help me here.

25:29

- [Kwesi] Jonny, we need more peanut butter!

25:32

- Okay, hold on.

25:34

- Ow!

25:35

Oh!

25:35

- [Kwesi] Oh yeah, that always happens, yup.

25:37

Gotta come in through the other side.

25:38

- So many people go like this and step up

25:41

and just bang their head.

25:42

- I'm okay, I'm okay, I'm okay.

25:45

- [Keith] Yeah, I know.

25:46

Just take a second.

25:48

He really got it.

25:50

He's taller.

25:51

Unfortunately, that's the worst consequence.

25:53

Just take a second.

25:54

- [Kwesi] Watch your back.

25:55

- [Keith] Hurts every time.

25:56

Hurts every time.

25:57

- Sorry, guys.

25:57

- [Kwesi] But it's okay, Jonny.

25:58

- [Rachel] If you're not okay, you need to go sit down.

26:00

- [Keith] And it's okay.

26:02

- Barbecue smash and a peanut butter smash.

26:03

- [Kwesi] Okay.

26:04

- [Rachel] How long have you been waiting?

26:05

- Almost a half hour.

26:06

- [Rachel] Are you hungry?

26:07

- I'm starving, yeah.

26:09

- It actually doesn't hurt.

26:11

- I thought that was a bit.

26:12

- [Rachel] No, it was real.

26:14

The medic checked him out and he's okay,

26:15

but I'm keeping an eye on him.

26:18

- [Zach] Yeah.

26:18

- I got a burger ready to become something

26:19

and another burger ready to become something else.

26:21

- [Kwesi] Whoa, what is all of this?

26:22

All right, now we're getting a little

26:24

outta hand now, guys.

26:26

It's gonna be a shit ton of pb smash.

26:27

- Guys, if you see a barbecue pulled pork,

26:28

we can make those right now.

26:30

- [Keith] I got two Oreos coming right now.

26:31

- I'm cool with non-toasted buns.

26:32

Get 'em out the (beep) door.

26:34

- [Keith] I'm gonna need another stack of burgers soon.

26:36

Okay, we just need a barbecue pulled pork, no slaw

26:38

and this is ready to go.

26:39

Guys, the line's getting too long.

26:40

I need reinforcements.

26:41

I need reinforcements.

26:42

I need reinforcements.

26:46

- You recommend we should distract them, then?

26:48

If they're

26:49

on line waiting? - Yeah, yeah.

26:50

- Some type of diversion?

26:52

- Maybe that might help.

26:53

- We haven't tried that yet,

26:54

but if it works for you guys

26:56

just, you know, maybe you guys will teach us something.

26:58

- [Keith] Hey!

27:00

- This it?

27:01

- [Keith] This is hell.

27:02

- Is this the place? This is hell?

27:03

- [Keith] It's hot in here.

27:04

- Okay, well I'm the magician.

27:07

- Oh, the magician's here!

27:09

- We need some magic!

27:10

- I hope I'm not doing the magic in here.

27:11

- [Keith] No.

27:12

- [Kwesi] No, no way!

27:13

- Hey, how are you doing?

27:14

- [Child] We were told you do magic.

27:15

- Oh, I do.

27:16

What kind of magic do you wanna see?

27:17

- Well, well, well, look who decided to come back?

27:21

- [Kwesi] Jonny we got a peanut butter smash.

27:23

- Honestly, you guys, I'm okay.

27:26

- Oh!

27:27

The wind got me.

27:28

Was that your card?

27:29

- [Kwesi] Fries times two.

27:30

- [Jonny] I'll get you a bunch of fries.

27:31

We got hot ones coming out.

27:32

- [Keith] Thanks y'all.

27:33

Mimi! Mimi!

27:33

Where you at? Mimi!

27:35

- Comes to the top.

27:36

- How'd you do it?

27:37

- [Kwesi] Sorry for the wait.

27:38

Here you go.

27:38

Okay, we are catching up, team.

27:40

- [Keith] Awesome.

27:41

- So, flip that over.

27:42

- Shut up.

27:43

- Oh, that's what I'm talking about.

27:44

- Colin! K-pop!

27:46

Who wants a smash burger?

27:47

27:49

He came for a second.

28:24

(Kwesi laughs)

28:25

- [Kwesi] Oh my God.

28:26

- Well we're at Smorgasburg every Sunday with our bus.

28:29

28:30

- [Keith] It's the biggest food festival market thing in LA.

28:33

Have you been to Smorgasburg?

28:34

- [Zach] Yeah.

28:35

- [Keith] It's good.

28:37

Hello, hello.

Welcome, welcome.

28:40

Okay, first time here?

That's like, Grateful Dead aliens.

28:47

Sick as hell.

28:47

You know we're auditioning to see

28:49

if we can in the two year spot.

28:50

Big fan of what you do.

28:52

- Thanks.

28:53

I mean I feel like I have

28:55

to have the peanut butter smash, right?

28:57

- [Zach] Peanut butter smash.

28:57

- Is that the- - Its the move today.

28:59

- Seems like the thing, I mean.

29:00

- It's the exclamation point that gets people.

29:02

Let's get you some fries.

29:03

- [Zach Brooks] Is there something special

29:04

about the fries, or?

29:05

- They're fried. Fried potatoes.

29:07

(Zach Brooks laughs)

29:08

- [Zach Brooks] All right.

29:09

- You want a little pulled pork on those?

29:09

- [Zach Brooks] I mean...

29:11

Yeah, why not.

29:11

- [Zach] All right, order will be right up.

29:12

Thank you so much, Zach.

29:13

- Fire me up a pb smash.

29:15

- Peanut butter smash, yeah?

29:18

- [Kwesi] Yeah lemme get a pulled pork fries.

29:20

- [Keith] Got it.

29:21

- [Kwesi] On this ticket, Zach-

29:25

- [Kwesi] Boom. All right, cool.

29:26

So they got one pb smash, pulled pork fries,

29:28

29:29

- Yes, please.

29:31

29:55

Fantastic.

29:56

Zach, you enjoy yourself.

29:59

Cheers, man.

29:59

You're doing a (beep) fantastic job.

30:01

- No, you're doing a great job.

30:02

- [Zach] Guys, that may have been our last order.

30:03

- [Keith] Wow.

30:08

- It's not bad.

30:09

It's not bad.

30:10

And this is like, jackfruit?

30:11

Yeah, it's not bad.

30:12

And the fact that they made

30:13

the potatoes from scratch is like, a huge plus.

30:16

And I mean, the peanut butter smash burger idea

30:18

is a great idea.

30:19

They probably need to

30:20

like, perfect it a little more

30:22

before we would really consider giving them

30:24

a spot at Smorgasburg, if I'm being honest.

30:26

They did this whole thing in 24 hours?

30:27

Like the, the menu, the everything?

30:31

- [Staff] Yeah.

30:31

- I mean that is, that is impressive.

30:36

- I am just...

30:38

I am so proud of us.

30:40

- How's everything tasting today, sir?

30:42

- I'm trying it for the first time.

30:43

- Oh well, please, go ahead.

30:47

- Yeah, man.

30:47

(Zach laughs)

30:48

Yeah, man.

30:49

- I thought it went pretty well.

30:50

Especially compared to the last one.

30:52

- It was pretty good.

30:53

- How about you, Amelia?

30:54

Did you like it, or not so much?

30:56

- Not so much.

30:56

- Not so much?

30:58

- Food was delicious.

30:59

Keith on the grill.

31:00

(beep) MVP, getting that heat in his face.

31:02

How we're you doing this all day?

31:04

- [Keith] It's hot.

31:04

- This is unbelievable.

31:05

I'm making one burger and I wanna die.

31:06

- [Keith] Yeah, it's hot.

31:07

- I think it could be saltier.

31:08

- I can't lie, this is good to me.

31:10

- Yeah, I talk too much.

31:12

- [Keith] A little.

31:13

- [Kwesi] I'll learn.

31:14

(Keith laughs)

31:15

- I loved it.

31:16

Honestly, I would've never tried peanut butter on a burger.

31:19

- This is our first day.

31:21

- Yeah, we killed it.

31:22

I think, I'm shocked at how smoothly that went.

31:24

So he said you gave him his number?

31:26

- I did.

31:27

I wasn't sure exactly what's happening here.

31:30

- (laughs) Okay.

31:31

- So, I figured until we have that conversation...

31:33

- Let me pull up a chair.

31:34

Let me pull up a chair.

31:35

- Cheers.

31:36

Cheers.

31:37

Cheers.

31:38

And honestly very much props

31:40

to the owners of this bus.

31:42

See, you see people working really, really hard

31:43

at a food festival.

31:44

You don't see that they actually worked hard eight hours

31:46

before that to make it possible

31:48

to work hard for the food festival.

31:49

- If you ever find that you're waiting

31:50

for your food and you get upset, just know

31:52

that people are dying in a tin box.

31:54

Okay?

31:55

So have a little goddamn patience.

31:56

(lively electronic music)

32:01

- I'm sorry, we all have to be on roller blades.

32:05

- We're in a bus! (Kwesi laughs)

32:07

- But like-

32:08

- No one's outside. - we'll never

32:09

have this opportunity again.

32:10

- No one's gonna see us.

32:11

- Absolutely not is anyone going

32:13

on roller blades near a fryer

32:15

and a flat top.

32:16

- [Jonny] Okay.

32:17

- Jonathan Cakes.
