A Year Later...

So this weekend will be exactly 1 year since we’ve officially opened Sticky’s Chicken Food Truck. 
I honestly can’t believe I operate and run my own business. It’s never been a dream of mine (to be an entrepreneur), but it happened. This past year has been a long uphill battle and I regret absolutely nothing.

So let me tell you a little bit about Sticky’s Chicken.
Basically, a little over 15 years ago, we took Dad to BW3, which is now known as Buffalo Wild Wings. He tasted the wings and thought to himself... “I can do better than this.” So then after that experience, he created his own sauce and figured out how to glaze it on to really crunchy chicken. The sauce is amazing, almost indescribable. It doesn’t really taste like sweet BBQ, but it doesn’t taste like sweet teriyaki either. It’s literally a burst of a new kind of flavor in your mouth. It has a distinct flavor of its own. So flash forward to now. My brother and I were at a point in our lives where we were able to just jump in head first into our first business venture. With no experience or knowledge on how to start a business, let a lone how to run a food truck.... we just did it and it turned out to be a life changing experience. I can never go back to a regular 9-5 or even think about sitting at a desk in front of a computer working for Corporate USA. It’s so much more fun and rewarding seeing people smile after their first bite of our food. 
Houston has been an amazing city to serve and it can only get better from here. It truly has been a humbling experience from being on the news, meeting Karrueche and getting the thumbs up from Houston’s foodie Bun B. I’m super excited to see what the 2nd year of Sticky’s has in store for us!!
