History
A native of Venezuela, Chef Benoit Angulo loves New Orleans but missed the late-night street food popular in his hometown of Caracas. Having attended culinary school back home in Venezuela, he decided to bring that aspect of his culture to the streets of New Orleans! He and co-owner Rachel Billow met while working at Commander's Palace and decided to team up to start a shiny red Latin American food truck called La Cocinita. November 19th, 2011, was their opening night outside The Rendezvous Tavern on Magazine Street--the same bar where the idea for the truck was first developed.
