When the food-focused Expo Milano 2015 opens this Friday, the centerpiece of the USA Pavilion will be on wheels: six food trucks known as Food Truck Nation will showcase a sampling of regional American cuisine. "We thought it was the right way to represent what's happening in America," explains Mitchell Davis, Chief Creative Officer of the USA Pavilion. "They're really entrepreneurial, reliant on social media and really show diversity in the food."

The regions to be shown will rotate through the six month spread of the Expo starting with the beaches of Fort Myers and Sanibel and extending to Florida (May 22-June 11), Louisiana (June 12-July 2),California (July 6-26), and Oregon (October 2-22) and spotlight classic regional casual dining dishes such as lobster rolls, shrimp rolls, BBQ and, naturally hamburgers which will vary depending on which regional influence is in play at that time.
