Just to make clear again what Rockoyster has already told you. If you just want a boat ride, ignore the concept of the Gotthard Panorama Express (GPE *) completely
The Lake Luzern steamers are completely separate from the Gotthard Panorama Express. The steamers on the Vierwaldstättersee (the correct name - Lake Luzern is an unofficial English language term) have been operating since 1836. The steamers provide a public place to place service on several routes across and around the lake, as well as serving the needs of tourists.
Food provision is explained in the Company's own site here:

(* The GPE is a recent innovation partly invented to keep something running on the Gotthard mountain route following its replacment with the Gotthard base tunnel.)
