    Pinky's to open in Downtown Garden City

    June 29, 2018

    This story was written by SCOTT AUST, FCEDC Director of Communications

    Pinky’s Grilled Cheestro is set to open in downtown Garden City this month and owners Jose and Candice Rodriguez couldn’t be more excited to return home.

    Both grew up here, and have long made it a goal to return. Most recently, the couple lived in Ashland and based their mobile food truck there.

    “It was time. I felt like God was calling us back home,” Candice said.

    “To further understand that, to us, Pinky’s is more than just a food truck,” Jose said. “To us, Pinky’s is a ministry. All the people’s lives that she’s been able to touch — and I mean it, she’s Pinky’s — every opportunity that she’s had to speak to somebody or have a casual conversation while their food’s cooking. Pinky’s is like a gateway or a door to creating relationships with the people around you.”
