Q.1

  • Any difficulties you might face in a mobile kitchen, for eg - space
  • The kind of food you will serve- Design your own menu
  • The amount of food -- considering that you have limited space compared to a restaurant kitchen. How will you manage demand and supply?
  • Safety is paramount when it comes to design. You will need to consider food safety as a high priority when it comes to considering the layout. This could include good ventilation, cleaning zones -isolated from food areas.
  • With limited space, how would you ensure all of this
  • Dont forget to name your food truck
