Hungry Kepuha is a Tucson food truck that serves barbecued chicken curries and stews that honor owner Anthony Ooka's home and other Pacific islander cuisines.
Ellice Lueders If Anthony Ooka II sounds like he’d be more comfortable in front of a classroom than behind the wheel of a food truck, it’s because he is.
Anthony went to college in Guam to become a teacher. After a stint in the military and saving up a nest egg with his wife to start a family on the mainland, they could have gone anywhere, but they chose Tucson.

For two years, a contract Anthony had with the base at Fort Huachuca meant someone in Tucson would have to get on base, or drive up to Phoenix to try the cuisine of Guam from a different eatery.
For now, the menu is based around chicken: chicken stews, like chicken estufao, or barbecued chicken curry, like the coconut chicken I tried on Tuesday. Anthony made this decision to help lower the prices of his food during the pandemic.
