For Star subscribers: A 30-foot pontoon boat turned mobile kitchen is serving up eats on the water, and in the winter months, right here in Tucson.
Gerald M. Gay Mark Hall and Craig Adams may have the only food truck in Tucson that can serve its customers on both land and sea.
The boat serves a mix of burgers and Mexican fare, including street tacos, quesadillas and burritos, as well as fish and chips.But the menu is usually not what customers are most curious about.People are also reading… The Kitchen is fully functional on the water. It had been operating on Lake Pleasant, north of Phoenix, for a year before Hall and Adams took it over.
They had talked about opening a food truck. Adams was coming up on retirement as a mechanical engineer and Hall had a long history of running restaurants in Tucson, franchises such as Applebee's, Pizza Hut and Chili's. He called Adams to let him know that there was a food boat on the market,"and it was on our lake," Hall said.
