    The Bun Mobile.......Brisbane's first and premier gourmet food truck.To date, chef and owner Harold Fleming and wife Christine have steered their sunny blue Bun Mobile mainly around the south side of Brisbane, satisfying Brisbane’s bun cravings.Since its inception, talk of the Bun Mobile has spread far and wide. The New York Times reported in its Travel Section that the truck is one of the best eateries in Brisbane on or off wheels. Over the past year, it featured on several Taiwanese, Singapore and Indonesian television shows.The menu of twice cooked pork, teriyaki chicken or wagyu beef classics and daily changing specials and vegetarian offerings satiate the hungry mouths of Brisbanites who crave excellent food for less than $10 without comprising value and taste. Using quality local ingredients, The Bun Mobile boasts a fusion of world flavours which has created an exotic twist delivering high-end food at street level prices to Brisbane’s suburbs.The Bun Mobile specialises in corporate catering as well as wedding and events.
