‘We’re hurting’: $50,000 food trailer stolen from Roseville restaurant

After renovating for two years and getting it up and running last month, someone stole the Old School Deli’s $50,000 food trailer last Wednesday.

Owner of Old School Deli Steve Morse hasn’t always been in the restaurant scene. However, his love of food made him switch careers.

“I was actually an insurance agent,” he said with a smile.

He opened up his Roseville deli in 2013 to bring people joy through the power of good food.

“Our corned beef, people say it’s the best on the east side,” Morse said.

To expand his business and take it on the road, Morse bought the food trailer from Georgia in 2022. After long hours at the restaurant, he would take time after work to renovate it for two years with the help of family and friends.

“You’re working 12 hours in the restaurant, then you’re going out in the back for another four, five hours. Those were long days,” he said.

He got the trailer up and running in December, equipped with a working kitchen and new flooring, only to notice it was stolen Wednesday morning when he got to work.
