Matakana businesses 8-Wired Barrelworks and Sculptureum have joined forces to site a permanent food truck at the Barrelworks premises in Matakana called Sculptureum Kitchen.
Barrelworks general manager Darren De Graff says he was keen to move away from the rotating food trucks he’d had in the past and provide something more consistent, while still retaining the food truck vibe.
The menu has been designed by Sculptureum’s executive chef Josh Hazel. He says the idea is to keep it along the lines of what people would expect from a food truck, but making it slightly more approachable for a brewery offering.
“We have incorporated a selection of 8 Wired beers in some dishes and are looking to grow on this concept moving forward,” he says.
Following the success of Sculptureum’s temporary food truck last autumn, Hazel approached De Graff to gauge interest on leasing the kitchen space on a permanent basis and from there Sculptureum Kitchen was born.
“Our hope is for the partnership to continue growing and building a strong following in the community,” Hazel says.
