This is “Juna” and “Yuina,” both 23 years old, who operate a food truck that sells churros. What time do you usually wake up? I usually get up around 4:30 in the morning. So it is often still dark outside. Sometimes I can see the stars.

It’s tough to wake up early in the morning, isn’t it? Afeter preparing separately, they meet in the parking lot Where do you plan to take your food truck to today? Today we will take it to a place called “Hakone Rakuichi”

There are a lot of international tourists there and we are doing our best to serve them in English Only one hour from central Tokyo, Hakone is famous for hot springs, nature and the view of Mount Fuji across Lake Ashinoko. Hakone is one of the most popular destinations

Among Japanese and international tourists looking for a break from Tokyo. As soon as they arrive at the location of their food truck, they begin preparing. Do you divide the work between the two of you? In the morning, we usually unload the big stuff first.

Two of us will split up to prepare the outside of the food truck and the inside. Is this food truck handmade? Yes, everything is handmade. How long did it take you to build the food truck? How long was it? It took three months and four months to build the food truck.

Including other preparations, it took a total of one year. For example, starting social medias, thinking of dishes, etc This food truck is so popular that has been featured on TV shows and by famous influencers! Suddenly Juna ran into a 7-Eleven. What are you doing?

We forgot to print the menu for a new menu item, so we are doing it urgently. Wow! This new menu looks delicious! After finishing shopping, they change into their work clothes and continue preparing. Why did you decide to start a food truck business?

When I was a senior in college, I was job hunting. I lost sight of what I wanted to do as I went through the job search process. I was having a hard time, and that’s when I met her. As we talked about job hunting and life, we empathized with each other.

Then we thought it would be better to start our own business. I talked to my brother about it. “I knew you would end up like this anyway,” was what was said at that time. Then I started the business with the support of my brother, who was like, “Okay, I’ll help you.

Where do you usually take this food truck? Basically, we are based in Kanagawa Prefecture, we often take this food truck to “Odawara” or “Chigasaki” We often come to Hakone-Yumoto, where we have a store today Occasionally, when there is an event, we take food truck to Tokyo.

I have to be careful not to oversleep because my mornings are incredibly early! But you’ve never overslept. I never have. But Juna oversleeps quite a bit. No, just a couple of times. Cooking prep begins with making the churro dough! Actually, they have created content about the food truck on Tiktok and Instagram

And have a lot of fans themselves! I’m glad tat many people actually come to our food truck after watching tiktok videos. I also get messages by DM that they want to visit our food truck We get requests from people far away, like, “Please come to our hometown.”

Our goal is to go around Japan with this food truck we hope one day we will be able to visit you all. Orders never stopped coming in as soon as the store opens and foreign customers also come to the store, making it necessary to talk with them in English!

Well done Juna! What is this? This is a new product recently created, churros dumplings. Is it a pretty popular menu item? This is a tourist spot, and this product is quite popular because it’s Instagram-worthy, so we receive quite a few orders

These churros come with chocolate inside, so when you bite into them, the chocolate melts in your mouth. Thank you for waiting for the churros dumplings! Who thinks of new dishes? Basically I and my brother, the owner of this food truck thinks of new dishes.

As they said, many foreigners as well as Japanese visited this food truck during the daytime! Where are you from? England Are you on vacation in Japan now? Yeah, we are here on holiday How did you find this food truck? We just walked pass and saw it and it looked so lovely.

Then try some of that. How is the taste? It’s really good. Really nice. What kind of restaurant is this? This is an onigiri shop that has been a favorite of ours at Hakone-Yumoto! I always have onigiri here for lunch! What is your favorite menu item? I love “Natto and Kimuchi” How about Juna?

Depends on my mood. There are so many amazing varieties. We both always eat hamburger steak That hamburger steak is really good. I’ll order again today. It’s just a little bit more expensive. So we’ll split it in half. They will bring the onigiri to our food truck

Do you always carry your rice balls for them? Yeah because they always buy our onigiri and treat us well What are their personalities like? They are very kind people. They are friendly and easy to talk to. I think they are very nice people Thank you Be careful, it’s hot. Thank you always Itadakimasu

This is the humburger steak It’s really good This is it! we usually eat it while we are checking on it. What if a customer comes in? Hello Would you like to try our churros? Hello Would you like to taste it? Here is a tasting of cinnamon flavored churros. Are there many customers today?

Today there were more customers during the daytime hours than usual. On the contrary, now that the streets are less crowded and the number of customers is decreasing. Now we’re handing out tastings and doing our best to bring in customers. Please give me two Churros Dumplings
