About Hero or Villain
Why the name? Hero or Villain speaks to the two sandwich categories available at this truck. Heroes refers to all those tried-and-true sammies you grew up with, while villains are unconventional varieties jam-packed with so many gourmet ingredients they verge on pure decadence. Whether you go with the light or dark side, however, this truck’s a culinary experience residents of Detroit, MI don’t want to miss.
Looking for a valorous choice? Try anything from the Mega Man, a classic B.L.T., to the Green Ranger, a turkey sandwich amped up via some pesto aioli. Feeling sinful? Then grab something like the Sinister, jam-packed with a three cheese mix of cheddar, mozzarella, herbed goat cheese plus caramelized onions, arugula, and whole grain mustard. This only scratches the surface of the options here, so you’ll have to hit up Hero or Villain yourself and try all the offerings. Or, better idea? Have ‘em out to cater your next event. Whether they walk the path of good or evil, guests are sure to love it.
MUST TRY
Captain Planet — Even avid carnivores will love this robust blend of mushrooms and full-bodied veggies plus mozzarella all slathered in pesto aioli.

What is the story behind your business' name?
Growing up, I was and still am a comic book geek. Heroes, or gyros, are a type of sandwich. It just made sense.
Where did you learn to cook?
I'm completely self taught.
Why did you decide to start your business?
I knew at a young age I would own my own business working with food. I wanted to keep within an arm’s reach of the customer. A food truck was the coolest option.
Who encouraged you the most to start your own business?
My father is a successful, self-made business owner in Chicago. I worked with him from a young age and he has always inspired me to be the best I can.
