Puerto Rican Food Truck with a Twist Rolling Into Orlando

ORLANDO, FL – Mr. Fritura, a new Puerto Rican food truck, will travel the streets by the end of August, bringing a mobile taste of the island to Central Florida. While its permanent base will be at 1020 W Michigan St, Orlando, FL 32805, the truck will travel to events in Orlando, Tampa, Daytona, and other Florida locations.

Owners Marie Gotler and Lex Gotler told Business Debut they’re aiming to offer a modernized food truck experience with both authentic flavors and unique amenities.

Puerto Rican Menu with a Twist

The Mr. Fritura menu will feature fried Puerto Rican favorites, including alcapurrias, papas rellenas, pastelillos, mofongo, and the jibarito sandwich that swaps bread for crispy fried plantains, filled with lettuce, tomato, mayo-ketchup, and your choice of steak, chicken, or another protein.

Also making its debut is a fully customizable stuffed burger. “The cook, Ruben, can make it the way you want to, whatever you’d like stuffed inside,” Marie said.

A Modern Food Truck Experience

Unlike most food trucks, Mr. Fritura will include outdoor seating via a balcony setup, along with mounted TVs for both entertainment and menu display. A second TV at the back of the 22-foot truck will offer wireless gaming for kids while they wait.

“We wanted to make it a little more modern than normal food trucks,” Lex explained. “We touch base with the adults and also the youth.”

The Team Behind Mr. Fritura

Mr. Fritura is operated by cooks Ruben Vasquez and his wife, Gladys Vasquez, with Marie and Lex Gotler overseeing business operations. The Gotlers are well-experienced entrepreneurs in logistics and other industries, and see this as their entry into the food service industry.

Operating hours will vary based on events, generally from lunch to dinner. Stay tuned for Mr. Fritura's upcoming website and social media for location and other updates.
