I'm nowhere near the business of foodtrucks so obviously take this with an extremely tiny grain of salt, but I think you'll have better chances sticking to one area and a standard (non rotating) menu. Sticking in one area - because it's easier to get regulars and free word-of-mouth marketing if they know you'll still be there next week. Standard menu - because it might be a turn-off for people to love their first time only to come back and not have what they liked available. You can probably rotate specials, but having a standard base menu will help keep your regulars.
That's good advice. Thank you
Alternatively, if you really prefer the rotating menu thing you could forget the food truck and do a supper club. Typically a reservation-only, once a week or once a month thing, or whenever you have time. If you could find a small local farm to partner with, they may be able to offer you dining or cooking space in return for showing off their veggies or something.
