What happened after Food Paradise?
Food Paradise's 'All Wrapped Up' episode featured Percheron Mexican Grill, a Sonoran-style Mexican food truck in Tucson, Arizona that owner Diego Valencia launched in 2013. The truck specializes in steak, pork, and vegetarian burritos, Sonoran hot dogs, quesadillas, and caramelos, including a bacon-wrapped burrito, according to Tucson Foodie. Tucson Foodie reported that Percheron opened a brick-and-mortar restaurant at 444 West Ajo Way on February 29, 2024, about a mile from the original truck's spot on South 12th Avenue. An automated check of the truck's website returned no response on 2026-09-08, but a web search the same day found the site live along with an active StreetFoodFinder tracking page for the truck, a listed phone number, and a contact email, [email protected], for catering inquiries.
