"Levi Tucker, 3½, ordered dinner Wednesday evening at a food truck in his Burlington neighborhood. Held to truck-window height by his father, Levi asked for beef curry, which was served with vegetables and coconut rice. Levi also wanted salad, and was pleased it came with tomatoes.
"He ate with his parents on a patch of grass at Northgate Apartments in the New North End.
"When the meal was over, or over from the point of a toddler, Levi had this to say: 'I liked some of the food.' His father, Travis Tucker, also ordered beef curry – and ate every morsel of his dinner and his son's leftovers, too.
"The family’s dinner was courtesy of the Good Food Truck, a venture of the Chittenden Emergency Food Shelf that serves free, hot dinners to people who might lack access to nutritional meals."
A recent Burlington Free Press article profiled the Good Food Truck ministry the Chittenden Emergency Food Shelf, Burlington, Vermont.
