“The quality of food mixed with the price makes it extremely worth it. The owner is extremely pleasant, and it was a great change from the Union,” says ‘26 graduate Ellen Stadlman regarding the new addition parked on 20th and Olney. 

In an exciting development for foodies and cultural Explorers alike, a new addition has rolled onto our campus scene – a brand new halal food truck. With chicken, lamb, falafel, gyros, and many more delicious Islamic dishes, the cart owner, Ali, promises delectable flavors at extremely affordable prices. 

Positioned strategically outside of Connelly Library, the truck instantly catches the attention of passersby. From the moment its serving windows opened less than two weeks ago, it has been drawing in tons of customers including La Salle students, faculty, and staff. Even President Dan Allen has been seen conversing with Ali and buying lunch there. 

Many students on the social app “Fizz” have shared their experiences and beliefs regarding the delicious food truck. One posting says, “La Salle needs to give the halal cart guy his own restaurant in the union right next to TLC.” Another text post states, “Halal truck is goated. Best food on campus.”  

The addition of this halal truck at La Salle represents more than just a convenient dining option instead of using up your SFA dollars and meal swipes; it stands as a symbol of diversity and inclusivity. As customers continue to gather at the gourmet establishment, it serves as a reminder to unite in celebration of our shared cultures.
