Melt says, get your cheese on, Honolulu

Aker Briceno Melt food truck Honolulu photo by Mark NakagawaThe Melt truck rolled into the Fitted parking lot on Kona St. for their grand opening on Saturday, Oct. 24. The name refers to what happens when gourmet cheese meets hefty bread for a comfort food favorite: grilled cheese sandwich. Aker Briceno took orders and handed out the cheesy goodness.
