Uncle G’z Flavors in Dallas, TX, is a custom 16-foot mobile kitchen bringing the rich, authentic soul of Rwandan street food and East African traditional cooking to North Texas. Built on the motto "Seasoned with Tradition, Served with Love," their truck provides DFW with a bold, high-flavor dining alternative that stands out in any lineup.

Anchored by Gerard’s authentic recipes from Rwanda, their menu features hand-folded Beef, Chicken, Shrimp, and Potato Sambusas, signature Loaded Kigali Crunch Fries, flame-grilled Kabob Wraps, and slow-simmered Goat, Beef, and Chicken Stews served over fragrant Pilau Rice with warm Chapati flatbreads and fufu. Paired with their proprietary house sauces (Tequila Firebird and Pure Habanero) and sweet golden Mandazi doughnuts, they deliver food that feels both refreshingly distinct and deeply comforting. Whether serving fast-moving corporate lunch rushes or feeding event crowds at major DFW festivals, Uncle G’z operates on a simple promise: They don’t cut corners, but they fold them.

Uncle G’z Flavors was founded by Gerard Nkusi, a Rwandan native who brought his culinary heritage, authentic family recipes, and passion for East African comfort food to the Dallas–Fort Worth Metroplex. To bring this vision to the streets of North Texas, Gerard partnered with Sheldon Pack to build a top-tier mobile dining operation. Together, Gerard and Sheldon combine authentic Rwandan craftsmanship with high-capacity event logistics. Gerard serves as the culinary foundation of Uncle G’z, ensuring every sambusa is hand-folded daily, every stew is slow-simmered with traditional aromatic spices, and every dish honors Kigali's true street-food culture. Sheldon manages business growth, digital strategy, and mobile operations, keeping service fast, efficient, and consistent across Fort Worth, Haltom City, and the broader DFW area. For Gerard and Sheldon, Uncle G’z is more than a food truck; it is a cultural bridge, sharing the richness of East Africa with every guest who steps up to the window.
