<b>I BRAKE FOR LUNCH:</b> Catch the Four Seasons Food Truck while it’s in Santa Barbara.

The food truck concept has clearly grown up. Starting next Monday, September 30, be on the lookout for a new truck, one with seriously upscale pedigree: Yep, with eight destinations spanning three states and an itinerary of more than 1,000 miles, the first-ever Four Seasons Food Truck will be tooling around Santa Barbara during the next week.

And the grub promises to be delicious. Expect a street-food-styled menu with gourmet Californian and Italian influences: There’ll be panini and wraps, BBQ short ribs with smoked mozzarella and arugula, a quinoa-based veggie burger, fries, salads, and desserts for lunch. For breakfast, look for items including a ham-and-cheese Monte Cristo; a bacon, burrata, and basil croissant egg sandwich; grilled veggie quiche; and a breakfast burrito with chorizo, fried jalapeño, and avo … And the truck’ll rework its offerings during a couple of appearances as a nod to Octoberfest, with items like smoked bratwurst with Brussels sprouts and sweet potatoes, beef goulash, and sausages and schnitzels (all the better to enjoy with Telegraph’s 1927 Ale, brewed exclusively for the Four Seasons Resort The Biltmore Santa Barbara). But don’t let the fancy origin fool ya — the prices are what you’d find at any food truck. (Read: cheap!)
