Arab-ish Mediterranean Fusion is a food truck and caterer in Madison, Wisconsin, and its menu sums up the idea in one line: inspired by Egypt, influenced by Los Angeles, crafted in Madison. Here's what's on the menu, what it costs, where to find the truck, and how online ordering could fit a menu like this one.
One thing the menu puts right at the top: it's fried in 100% beef tallow.
What's on the menu
Mains
Three of the four mains are wrapped in a flour tortilla and served with a small side of arab-ish fries and your choice of sauce. The prices below are from the posted menu.
| Main | Price | What's in it |
|---|---|---|
| Gyro Chorizo (signature) | $15 | Beef, lamb and chorizo caramelized on the flat top, with garlic toum, mint tzatziki, Jerusalem salad, arugula and feta |
| Ginger Shawarma Chicken | $14 | Soy-ginger chicken tenderloins with cabbage slaw, mint tzatziki, garlic toum and house-pickled red onions |
| Arab Chimi | $15 | Ginger chicken shawarma with mozzarella and feta, garlic toum, roasted jalapeño aioli and pickled red onions, wrapped and deep fried |
| Loaded Fries | $14 | Plain or signature fries with your choice of protein, Jerusalem salad, mint tzatziki, feta and a sauce |
The menu calls the Arab Chimi its "not so secret menu item."
Salad, kids and sides
- Salata Baladi $15: a country salad on arugula with your choice of protein, Jerusalem salad, mint tzatziki, feta and a sauce
- Chicken Quesadilla (kids) $9: melted cheese and shawarma chicken in a grilled flour tortilla, with fries and a sauce
- Arab-ish Signature Fries $7: tossed in a za'atar-inspired seasoning with notes of garlic, herbs, sesame and citrus, or plain
- Canned beverage $2, bottled water $1
For dessert, the menu says to ask about their dessert option.
Five house sauces
Every main, the salad and the kids' quesadilla come with a sauce, and an extra sauce is $1:
- Garlic toum: a fluffy Lebanese garlic emulsion, dairy-free
- Mint tzatziki: Greek yogurt with mint, cucumber, garlic and lemon
- Yogurt tahini: tahini, yogurt, lemon and garlic
- Roasted jalapeño aioli: roasted jalapeños blended into a garlic aioli
- Chipotle pomegranate sauce: chipotle peppers with pomegranate molasses
The menu's glossary explains the rest: the Jerusalem salad is diced tomatoes, cucumbers and herbs with lemon juice and olive oil; the cabbage slaw is shredded cabbage with lemon, herbs and olive oil; and the red onions are quick-pickled in vinegar and spices.

How online ordering could fit a food truck like this
This menu is built on choices: plain or signature fries, a protein for the loaded fries and the salad, and a sauce with every main, salad and kids' meal. If Arab-ish turned on online ordering with Find The Eats, those choices could be set up as pick-one options on each item, so a customer picks their protein and sauce on the menu page, adds an extra sauce, pays by card and gets a short pickup code. The order would pop up on the order screen, and the customer would get an "order ready" text when it's time to walk up to the window. The money would go to the business's own Stripe account and pay out to its bank.
- Where the truck is right now. A food truck on Find The Eats shows its live location on its own page and on the who's-open-near-me map while it's serving, using a plug-in GPS transmitter or the phone. See how the live map works.
- Where it'll be next. A posted schedule shows the week's stops on the truck's page and in customers' calendars. More on schedules and social posting.
- Fewer mix-ups on custom orders. When customers choose their protein and sauce themselves, the ticket says exactly what they picked.
- Window sales in the same system. Walk-up orders can be rung up as cash, card, or a QR code the customer pays on their own phone, with no Find The Eats fee on those sales.
Fries come with three of the four mains and the kids' quesadilla, they're the base of the loaded fries, and they're sold as a side. Find The Eats inventory links each menu item to its ingredients, so every order counts the fries, tortillas and proteins down and shows when it's time to restock. Gift certificates and rewards points are built in too.
For a food truck, Find The Eats is $15 a month using the phone as the GPS, or $29 a month with a plug-in GPS transmitter that keeps the truck on the live map all day. The only per-sale fee is 25 cents on paid online orders and gift certificates sold online, plus Stripe's card fee. See pricing and fees, or read more about online ordering.
