NAICCO Cuisine food truck brings Native American street food to Parade the Circle in Cleveland
CLEVELAND — The Native American Indian Center of Central Ohio's NAICCO Cuisine is a Native American-owned and operated food truck serving a menu of Native street food—but its mission goes beyond feeding hungry customers.
"The revenues, everything earned from the trailer here, goes back into our programming for our people. So we're really all about our three main priorities—cultural preservation/restoration, community development as well economic development. And this encompasses all of that," Smith said. Jessica Longstreet, a Cleveland resident at the festival, stood in line to try some of NAICCO Cuisine's offerings.
"When you think of food, you first think of culture. To be honest, we know about the Native American culture but not too many people know the foods associated with the culture," Longstreet said. "Here we are in the present day, a new emergence of us coming forward and showing that, look, our food is here, we're here," Smith said."Our people's ways, they've always been there. And so I want to say that I think they're kind of resurfacing and people are starting to take notice."
