Village’s Mobile Café Will Spice Things Up at Street Scene

SAN DIEGO – MoJoe’s Mobile Café, a lunch wagon operated by St. Vincent de Paul Village clients participating in the organization’s culinary training program, will serve up a Cajun feast at this year’s Street Scene. The truck will be parked between Island Avenue and J Street, next to the Southwest Airlines Blues Stage from 5 p.m. today until the event’s closing at 9 p.m. Sunday.

The six-month Culinary Arts Program (CAP) prepares Village clients for careers in the food-services industry and includes internships with local hotels and restaurants. Students enrolled in the program graduate as certified culinary professionals.

Staffing the mobile café this weekend will be six culinary students and two St. Vincent’s staff members. The menu will include jambalaya, gumbo and steamed crawfish.

MoJoe’s Mobile Café has been serving San Diego for the past four months and regularly visits the St. Vincent’s warehouse and auto auctions. The café is also available for private-party catering. Contact David Miles at (619) 233-8500, ext. 1133 for more information.

Media inquires will be taken at (619) 525-1608.
