The holidays tend to be magical and for many Tucsonans, the news of Senae Thai’s return is the best gift anyone could ask for.
Owner of the Senae Thai food truck, Dee Buizer, has teamed up with Julie and Ben Vernon of Crooked Tooth Brewing, making the patio at 228 E. Sixth St. its permanent location.
“Senae Thai is back in Tucson,” Buizer shared. “Senae Thai street food is ready to serve you from our new food truck located at Crooked Tooth Brewing on Sixth Street, Tucson, offering a limited menu but still so delicious!”
To celebrate the big move, Chef Buizer will be at the food truck on Friday, December 20 from 5 – 9 p.m. “Come on down and say hi.”
She grew up in Bangkok, Thailand, a city known for its diverse food scene. She opened her first restaurant, Sweet Basil, in Berkeley, California, more than 35 years ago. Since then, with help from her family, she’s opened several more restaurants in California, Maryland, and Arizona.
In 2016, Buizer opened Senae Thai Bistro in downtown Tucson and decided to close the restaurant in July 2021.
Last year, she began popping up with one-night-only experiences at other local businesses like MotoSorona Brewing and Saffron Indian Bistro, where she hosted a special R&D Dinner.
Now, she and the small team are excited to stay put on Crooked Tooth Brewing’s beautiful, spacious, and cozy patio.
Of course, the menu is smaller than what the Bistro used to offer, but expect new additions to the menu now and again.
The food truck will be open from 5 – 9 p.m. on Wednesday – Sunday. Order at Crooked Tooth’s bar, where you’ll find a menu.
Senae Thai food truck is located at Crooked Tooth Brewing, 228 E. Sixth St. For more information, follow Dee Buizer on Instagram and Crooked Tooth Brewing on Instagram.
