Big Truck Tacos plans to drive ‘street food with a twist’ to after-hours scene in Oklahoma City

Three seasoned chefs with resumes at some of Oklahoma City’s finest restaurants are teaming up ... to start a taco truck.
The idea of starting Big Truck Tacos might seem an unlikely venture for Chris Lower, chef at The Metro Bistro and Wine Bar, Cally Johnson, former executive chef at Boulevard Steakhouse and more recently Cheever’s, and Kathryn Mathis, who worked with Lower before moving to Austin, Texas, for 14 years. Lower credits Mathis for creating a compelling vision — one inspired by breakfasts, lunches, dinners and late nights at taco trucks in Austin. "There’s really nothing like them here,” Mathis said, taking a break from renovations of the "home base” for Big Truck Tacos at 530 NW 23. "It was time for me to return home here to Oklahoma, and I couldn’t find a place where I could get a taco for breakfast.” The tacos pitched by Mathis are a bit more elaborate than what one might find at a typical Tex-Mex restaurant — she quickly recites a menu involving lamb, duck and other exotic choices.
