GT Events, one of the preeminent Marketing and Brand Promotion Agencies in California, has entered into a creative marketing alliance with “Nonna’s Kitchenette,” a new, gourmet Italian food truck that has just launched in Los Angeles, and which was prominently featured during the (recently aired) third season of the Food Network television series “The Great Food Truck Race.” The announcement was made today by Amy and Becky Glass, Co-Founders/Co-Presidents, GT Events, David Scheinberg, Senior VP/Creative Director, GT Events, and Lisa Nativo, Owner, and Jaclyn Kolsby, of Nonna’s Kitchenette.
GT Events has become the very first corporate sponsor of Nonna’s Kitchenette, and in so-doing, started by providing the truck with its new artwork. In exchange, the wrap artwork featured on the new food truck will include the GT Events corporate logo to promote GT as a corporate sponsor. Nonna’s Kitchenette, which will be making appearances throughout Los Angeles during the coming weeks and months, will also promote GT Events within all of its upcoming social media outreach.
Said Amy and Becky Glass, “One could say that GT Events literally helped ‘give birth’ to Nonna’s Kitchenette! Since they worked for us, we’ve remained in close touch with both Lisa and Jaclyn, and we were thrilled to have watched them, along with their third partner and friend Jessica Stambach, compete so vigorously during ‘The Great Food Truck Race’s’ third season We were so delighted to see that they made it to the finale of that TV series. We believe this unique food truck, with its extraordinary, homemade Italian dishes, will simply blow people away, as these lovely ladies make their way across the West Coast and beyond. We were glad that GT Events is able to play a role in the promotion and marketing efforts behind this exciting, fun, new venture.”
Add Nativo and Kolsby, “The dream of Nonna’s Kitchenette has become a reality, thanks in part to the corporate sponsorship and generosity of GT Events. It’s ironic that just five years ago, when we first met, we were both working in-house with GT Events. And now, just a few years later, we’ve all become collaborators and business partners.”
About NONNA’S KITCHENETTE
Fueled by decades of friendship, fresh ingredients and the flavors they love, the three women behind Nonna’s Kitchenette combined their inspiration from their grandmothers’ Italian recipes, with their own passion for homemade cooking, entrepreneurial spirit, and business savvy, to present modern dishes featuring Italian flavors everyone knows and loves.
“We’ve put a gourmet street food twist on our Nonnas’ classic dishes and created unique menu items inspired by Italian ingredients we love most,” said Nativo. What began as a dream was brought to life by passion, dedication and creativity, and has unfolded into an amazing company the women are extremely proud of.
Among Nonna’s Kitchenette’s homemade favorites: sweet basil & fontina meatball sliders, gourmet risotto balls, loaded Italian grilled cheese, and sweet treats like maple glazed french toast crostinis with vanilla bean mascarpone whipped cream, pizzelle (Italian Waffle Cookie) and gelato sandwiches, and other fresh baked Italian treats.
“So here we are… best friends, waking up every morning doing something we’ve always loved, together. We’re so grateful to have the opportunity to be sharing our dream with the world, and thankful for everyone who has become a part of the Nonna’s Kitchenette family. No one ever leaves hungry in our families so, Mangia Mangia!” Nativo concludes.

As identical twins, Amy and Becky Glass, Co-Founders/Co-Presidents of GT Events, entered into marketing at an early age. Their endless energy and natural talent for making a memorable impression gave them an early start and twice the advantage in the promotional marketing industry. In fact, no less an icon than Donald Trump was one of the first businessmen in the country to recognize the Glass Twins for their business savvy, quick witted trouble shooting, and intelligence. Before their senior year in college at Rutgers University, "The Donald" brought the Glass Sisters into his Corporation as the "Trump Twins," thus making Amy and Becky two of first, real-life “Apprentices.”
