12. TrooRa The San Francisco Issue ‘21

Their pop-up became increasingly popular, even more so after they expanded to offer a brunch menu with rave reviews. But the chefs’ star reviews increased substantially in 2020 after Bud Light offered them an advertising spot for the San Francisco 49ers Thursday Night Football game. When the advertisement aired, the chefs were hosting two trial food truck pop-ups. That night, it was business as usual. But the day after brought a rush of people drawn in from the commercial and that success has continued ever since.

From their own menu, Chef Calloway prefers the Cajun Mac & Cheese. It’s an easy dish to make but at the same time it’s complex and has many intricate components. For Chef Johnson, she likes the Black Power Bowl and the Avocado Tacos. As for the future, they would like to add a brick-and-mortar restaurant and juice bar. In addition, they hope to expand their services outside of California. They are also in the process of building their own sauce line that will be sold nationally. Big things definitely seem to be coming for these two enterprising chefs!
