Estou em Salvador, Bahia, Brasil agora e adoro acarajé, é tão delicioso, até o cheiro te chama para comer um. I have mine with extra pimenta, salada e vatapá. It is so good. Juro gente! I will definitely visit his truck when I am in Oakland.
Sad to hear his truck closed

Wonderful story

10000000% sure ..say good bye to UK
"damel" in javanese language mean "work", and its suit perfectly
You know he got really affected by not playing football because of his injury because he started to tear up a bit. Can you imagine, having to achieve your dreams but because you got injured, you can't? Many would've broken down and withered but this but this chad of a man said fuck it and started making food instead and made use of the other skills he had.

Oakland is a perfect place for this. Oakland is very proud of our diversity. This place looks great and the story is even better.
