Scott Kaplan - owner of Jerry's Kitchen Food Truck

Meet The Owner, Scott Kaplan

The inspiration behind Jerry's Kitchen comes from Scott Kaplan, who founded the company in honor of his grandfather, Jerry Klein, a food enthusiast who passed away in 2010. Scott, a self-taught cook with a background in sales, decided to pursue his passion for the culinary arts after being laid off from his corporate job in 2013. With encouragement from friends and family, he launched the food truck in 2014, aiming to bring fresh, delicious food to the Philadelphia area. Scott's dedication to quality and customer service has been instrumental in establishing Jerry's Kitchen as a premier catering service in the region.

When to Book

Recommended lead time

The further ahead you book, the more trucks you'll have to choose from. Planning ahead is the best way to secure your top pick.

That said, shorter timelines work too—we book events just days out all the time. You'll just have fewer options to choose from.

Busy seasons: Spring and Fall are our most popular times in Philadelphia, so booking early gives you the best selection.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can't find the answer you're looking for? Reach out to our team.

How far in advance should I book the food truck?
We recommend booking Jerry's Kitchen Food Truck at least 2-4 weeks before your event date. Food trucks in Philadelphia book quickly during peak seasons (Spring and Fall), so earlier is always better. For large corporate events with 100+ guests, 30 days advance notice ensures menu availability and proper staffing.
What types of events do you cater?
Jerry's Kitchen Food Truck caters corporate lunches, office parties, employee appreciation events, team building gatherings, company picnics, community festivals, university events, government functions, holiday parties, and private celebrations throughout Philadelphia and surrounding areas.
Is there a minimum order or guest count?
Yes, Jerry's Kitchen Food Truck has a minimum order of $873.75. This minimum covers essential costs including food preparation, staffing, travel to your Philadelphia location, and setup time. For smaller gatherings, consider our attendee-pay option where guests purchase their own meals.
What is included in the catering price?
Your catering quote from Jerry's Kitchen Food Truck includes fresh food preparation, all serving supplies (plates, utensils, napkins), professional staff, setup and breakdown, and travel within the Philadelphia service area. Pricing is transparent with no hidden fees—you'll see the complete cost including taxes before confirming your booking.
Do I need to provide any utilities (power or water)?
No utilities required. Jerry's Kitchen Food Truck is completely self-sufficient with onboard generators, water tanks, and cooking equipment. Simply provide a flat, accessible parking spot (approximately 12x30 feet) and we handle everything else. This makes food truck catering ideal for outdoor venues, parking lots, parks, and locations without kitchen facilities.
What happens in case of bad weather or cancellation?
We always try our best to work with you (and the truck) the best we can. Rescheduling is the best option when weather hits but our cancellation policy is outlined above.
Do you offer vegetarian, vegan, or gluten-free options?
We always try to cater to the customer's needs. Please reach out with specific dietary requests and we'll do our best to accommodate them.
Are there allergy-conscious meals available?
Yes, we accommodate allergy needs whenever possible. Please reach out with specific requirements and we'll work with you to ensure safe meal options for all guests.
