Heather O’Neill renovated this trailer for food service offering Mexican dishes\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

By Liz Witbeck<\/p>\n

A woman who has been involved in food
\nservice for many years, Heather O’Neill, is now
\ngetting involved with a food truck.<\/p>\n

“I made an offhand statement saying ‘I would
\nlove to open a food truck'” said O’Neill. Her
\nfather was supportive of her goal and helped
\nher open O’Pablos, a Mexican food truck, this
\nmonth.<\/p>\n

After months of searching, O’Neill found a
\ntrailer and renovated it to her needs. The food
\ntruck will be stationed at the French Mountain
\nCommons Outlets in Lake George, right off
\nNorthway Exit 20 on I-87.
\nThe food truck features Mexican dishes
\nsuch as soft and hard shell tacos, pork carnitas,
\nquesadillas, flautas, rice and beans, homemade
\ntortilla chips, soups, and churros. There are
\ngluten free, vegetarian and vegan options.<\/p>\n

Shoppers will be able to grab a quick bite to
\neat and take their food to go, or sit and eat at the
\npicnic tables located outside the truck. Outlets
\nat the mall include Banana Republic, Nine West
\nand Tommy Hilfiger.<\/p>\n

The food truck will be the first one in the
\nGlens Falls region.
\n“It’s the hottest trend in food service right
\nnow” said O’Neill. “It’s fun, it’s different … I’m
\nexcited to be the first one out of the gate.”<\/p>\n

The most difficult part of establishing the
\nfood truck was finding a brick and mortar
\nlocation, according to O’Neill. The application
\nprocess required her to connect the food truck
\nalong with a permanent location, even though
\nit is a mobile venue.<\/p>\n

O’Neill plans to purchase a second food truck
\nnext spring, which she will use for catering special
\nevents such as weddings, corporate events,
\nbirthday parties and more.<\/p>\n

O’Neill has been involved in the food industry
\nscene in Glens Falls for several years. She
\nopened Olde Post Grille in Lake George six
\nyears ago with her mother. She also previously
\nworked as director of food and beverage at West
\nMountain Ski Resort.<\/p>\n

She was offered the opportunity to come back to West Mountain but declined. “Right
\nnow we’re really focused on building our family
\nbusiness,” she said.<\/p>\n

The O’Neill family recently became managers
\nof the French Mountain Commons Deli. The
\ndeal came as a surprise, although the family is
\nexcited for the opportunity. The deli opened in
\nAugust and is under management of O’Neill’s
\nmother, Nancy.<\/p>\n

The menu at the deli features lighter sandwiches
\nand salads. Catering for special events
\nis available as well.
\nThe deli will be remodeled, with tables,
\nchairs, and mirrors being part of the repairs.
\nRemodeling will be done after the Columbus
\nDay weekend.<\/p>\n

O’Neill is allowing her family to handle the
\ndeli, while she gets excited to open O’Pablos
\nfood truck.
\n“We’re coming out with guns blazing” she said.<\/p>\n
