Grand Rapids is home to a unique food truck, Pressed in Time, known for its affordable culinary fusion and nostalgic charm. Owned by Rock Dandeneau, who boasts 37 years of cooking experience, the food truck stands out due to its distinctive teal exterior and its history as a former linen truck. The name “Pressed in Time” aptly reflects its origins, as “pressed” refers to the pressing of linen before it transitioned to food services.

Rock Dandeneau acquired the truck in 2014, repurposing it from laundry services to the culinary world. This transformation has allowed him to create an engaging dining experience that combines American comfort food with Mexican and Spanish influences. Dandeneau focuses on serving quality food at affordable prices, ensuring that customers receive large portions without breaking the bank.

One of the signature items on the Pressed in Time menu is the Copycat sandwich. Priced at $12, this dish resembles a folded quesadilla filled with sautéed burger, bacon, peppers, onions, and a Thousand Island-like sauce, all contributing to a unique combination of textures and flavors that has captivated local food enthusiasts. Additionally, the food truck features an infused corned beef brisket, which is slow-cooked with chipotle pepper, further showcasing the creative flair of Dandeneau’s menu.

Beyond the delicious offerings, Pressed in Time prides itself on fostering a positive and familial atmosphere among employees. Dandeneau provides his staff with health insurance and ensures they do not incur out-of-pocket expenses for it, which contributes to a supportive work environment. This emphasis on employee well-being reflects his commitment to creating not just a successful business but a community.

While many food businesses often seek accolades and recognition, Pressed in Time focuses on building genuine friendships with its customers. The food truck sets out to deliver quality service, making every interaction meaningful, and emphasizes the joy of cooking and sharing meals. Dandeneau expresses fulfillment in this chapter of his culinary career, finding great joy in his work and the connections formed through it.

Food lovers interested in trying Rock’s infused sandwiches can catch Pressed in Time at South Division for lunch on August 6, followed by a visit to GRAM on the Green on August 7. Customers are encouraged to check the truck’s Facebook page for future events and updates regarding their locations and menu specials.
