The story behind Guest Truck: Cousin’s Maine Lobster
2011 The beginning
The early days of Guest Truck: Cousins Maine Lobster are very similar to those of Apple or Facebook, in that they were founded by men in California. In 2011, as Father Winter deposited snow on Boston, Jim made the trek out to Los Angeles to visit Sabin, for some vitamin D and to reconnect with Sabin. Over an afternoon of playing NHL ‘94, a game they began playing in Maine when it was released and still played on a daily basis in the CML offices 20 years later, the Cousins discussed business opportunities.
They talked childhood, huge pots boiling in the backyard, running around with buttery ears of corn (pronounced “Kahn”) and picnic tables built for 8 seating 10 messy, bibbed kids elbows deep in a steaming hot lobster. They talked about the burgeoning Food Truck industry that was taking over the LA food scene, bringing delicious, unconventional cuisines to the masses cheaply and efficiently. After surveying the landscape, they realized that LA was missing those tasty Maine traditions they fawned over. Deciding to pool their savings and launch a food truck that celebrated Maine and served the bounty of their state the only way they knew it: fresh.
2012 The truck launch
The beginning was chaotic and confusing, yet promising and exciting. In 2012 when we opened, we had one truck, a small staff and very little restaurant experience. Thankfully, we had passion and an amazing product. From day one, we experienced lines of 50 to 60 people, which we were grateful for and humbled by.
Our one little truck produced amazing sales during its first few months. It provided a real opportunity that we had to acknowledge. With very little means, we built one truck, hired a small staff and created a culture and brand that customers gravitated to. The result was increased demand, more sales and a potential to expand our business. But before we had the chance to scale and put another truck on the road, we appeared on ABC’s hit show, Shark Tank.
2016 Shark Tank
Shark Tank producers had been part of the many customers that heard about our store, tried our food and seen the craze. Although we did not know it at the time, they had been regular patrons at our truck in the very early weeks. We were asked by the producers to go through the process of being on the show. With less than a month’s worth of sales under our belt, a very youthful company, with no proven sales and a complete unknown of the business, we actually turned down the show… not once, but twice. (We know… crazy.) As we gained a couple months of business, the opportunity to get on Shark Tank never truly disappeared. And with a bit more confidence as time went on and a helpful call from an executive producer, we thought that all of the stars were aligning and finally took the plunge.
We targeted Barbara from the beginning as we had done our research on her, how she works with businesses and that fact that she had invested in many other food brands. And at the end of the wild ride in the Tank, we came out hand in hand with Barb. Since that day, we have nothing but amazing things to say about Barbara and Shark Tank. We had a platform to share our story and business, one that opened so many doors and continues to lead to business opportunities we otherwise would not have had. Barb has been a mentor and business partner that we could not ask any more of. Beyond putting Cousins Maine Lobster in the spotlight, presenting new marketing options, sharing savvy business advice and growth ideas, she has become a close friend of our family and ours.
2017 California & Beyond
After the show we got back to growing and expanding our business. In the next year and a half we added 3 more trucks in Los Angeles, which increased our revenues and of course demanded a more robust infrastructure. Hiring the right team members, implementing the most efficient systems and growing our relationships back home in Maine were all main focal points as we grew our brand in Cali.
NOW Way, way beyond
And now here we are, some four years into our business, and we continue to care as much as we did on day one. We have 20 trucks in 13 cities throughout the country. We are the Franchisor to some amazing, talented and hungry Franchisees, and have the same core of hard working, dedicated and loyal employees in LA. Our company in its entirety support more than 100 employees. We value them all as much as we did when we didn’t know how to butter and grill a roll. It has been a wild ride, growing from one truck four years ago, to experiencing one of the greatest thrills of Shark Tank, and then growing our business with the franchise model. In fact, we are now franchising Brick and Mortars, which will be the next chapter to unfold in our Cousins Maine Lobster playbook.
Onward
We still learn something new every day. We have experienced ups and downs: major obstacles that didn’t show the light of day and victories that made us feel like we sat atop the world. Continuing to value the same core principles from the beginning, focusing on quality, service, and our story to provide customers happiness through food and care. As we get deeper in this journey, we often stop along the way to turn around and look back. To remember where we came from and who helped us get here. Most often times, for us, that has always led to our family. Don’t forget to turn around, show your gratitude, admire what you have done, and thank those people and places that have led you to where you are.

Guest Truck : E.M. Cheese
Gourmet Grilled Cheese served up in a refurbed ambulance – saving lives with the power of cheese.
About E.M Cheese:
“My dream started in 2016 when I went to an antique festival with my friends. During our time there we began looking around for lunch options. Unless you wanted something fried there were not many choices. This was the moment that I realized what I really wanted was a gourmet grilled cheese sandwich. One made on quality bread with melty cheese and some delicious toppings; a lunch that would taste great, satisfy my hunger and that would not be a weeks worth of calories! I thought “how great would it be to have my own food truck and take it to interesting places where I could serve food that I am really passionate about to people and have them fall in love with that food as well.” Since childhood, I have been passionate about grilled cheese sandwiches. Even as the daughter of a caterer, my meal request since I was three years old was always a grilled cheese. I believe in making delicious, nutritious food that serves peoples’ appetites for both quality and taste. I heavily researched the requirements to be a licensed food truck back in 2016 but due to financial costs decided that I needed to set my dream aside temporarily. After being in the workforce for several years, I was financially stable enough to purchase a used ambulance in October 2022 that I converted into a food truck. We launched E.M. Cheese in May 2023 and we have been having a blast and learning a ton!”

Guest Truck: Doughboys Pizza visits the Fleat patio!
”Our mission is to bring the taste of authentic, brick-oven pizza to communities everywhere. We believe that the magic of a brick oven is not just in its heat, but in the way it transforms fresh, quality ingredients into delicious, crispy crust pizzas. With our mobile trailer, we aim to share this experience with everyone and spread joy through our food. We are dedicated to using only the best ingredients, cooked to perfection in our brick oven, and served with a smile. Our goal is to create a sense of community around our food and to provide an unforgettable experience, one slice at a time.
The Doughboys are two childhood friends who grew to become brothers. Their friendship brought them a great dedication to each other, many memories, and most importantly, a passion for good pizza.
Our goal is to share our passion for pizza by providing an authentic experience and the highest quality ingredients.
We know first-hand that the success of a high-quality pizza is based on a strong foundation. That is why our dough is made from scratch with four simple ingredients.
Once our dough is fermented for at least 8 hours, we knead the dough to perfection for the ultimate Neapolitan pizza of your dreams. Our homemade sauce is whipped to perfection using authentic San Marzano tomatoes -imported from Italy – with our Doughboys’ secret recipe. We then top it off with high quality cheeses, and the toppings of your choice!”
