Toronto - A new Toronto food truck is possibly the first of
its kind in the world.
After years working as a line cook in top Toronto
restaurants, an accident in 2008 left chef Aleem Syed paralyzed from the waist
down. At first he thought his career was over.
“I didn’t understand how I could make it work,” Syed told
Global News back in December.
A visit from acclaimed French chef Pascal Ribreau convinced
him otherwise. Ribreau, who is also paraplegic, had Syed join him in the
kitchen to show him it was possible.
Inspired, the halal chef first started a catering business,
then a pop-up restaurant.
Now, it’s The Holy Grill food truck.
Syed is set to debut what might be the first
wheelchair-accessible food truck in the world. The design took some time.
