New Wing Order, a Best Food Truck winner in Memphis Flyer’s Best of Memphis, posted on X (formerly Twitter) that it’s closing.
According to the post, “It’s been a great ride Memphis, but we’ve made the tough decision to close. We love y’all and appreciate the support you’ve shown us these past six years. It’s been a privilege to share our culinary creations with you and develop some great friendships along the way.”
New Wing Order owner/operator Jesse McDonald posted the history of the food truck on Facebook. He says he decided to start a food truck 10 years ago. The concept was “Award-Winning Hot Wings.”
The food truck opened six years ago. But, McDonald writes, “Costs have risen so much in the last couple years and lately we’ve run into some unexpected expenses. Unfortunately, we are at a crossroads and I’m having to make another really hard decision. I’m sorry to say, we have to shut down the food truck.”
However, he adds, “While this is a goodbye for now, I really hope it’s just a break. I still have dreams for New Wing Order and I hope I can bring it back in some kind of capacity some day. In the meantime, soon you’ll still be able to come eat food that I cook so stay tuned y’all. I’m not done yet.”
