Sept 18: Habit Burger offering $5 combo for #NoKidHungry

It’s not QUITE a gourmet food truck, but it is going for a great cause!

On Sept. 18, a food truck operated by Irvine-based Habit Burger Grill will be offering a $5 meal special to benefit the nonprofit Share Our Strength.

The Habit Truck will set up in the visitor parking lot of The Orange County Register from 11 a.m. to 2 p.m. serving $5 combo meals that include a charburger with cheese, fries and a drink. Other entree options will include a gluten-free lettuce wrap and veggie burger.

Habit officials said 100 percent of all funds will go to Share Our Strength’s No Kid Hungry campaign, a nationwide effort to wipe out childhood hunger in the United States by educating families on how to cook healthy, affordable meals at home.

Habit Burger Grill is among dozens of restaurants across the country participating in programs to support the No Kid Hungry campaign. Along with this one-day event, Habit restaurants are also giving away a certificate for a free charburger with cheese for a $2 donation through Sept. 30. The certificate is valid for a customer’s next visit through Oct. 14.

The Register is at 625 N. Grand Ave. The visitor parking lot is open to the public.
