In 2022, Fatboy Sandos made its food truck debut, often setting up shop in front of a former Office Max building on Broadway Boulevard. Raphael De La Cuesta, a now-Tucson native after moving here from Los Angeles, was inspired to bring Japanese “sandos” to the Southwest after watching videos on YouTube.
