The LA Times Visits the Food Carts of Portland

November 21, 2009 by Dave 2 Comments

LAtimesPortland’s flourishing food cart scene is now drawing the attention of the LA Times.

Katherine Tulich writes, in Portland’s food carts a winning stop:

It’s like walking into someone’s backyard barbecue. There are groups of people standing and chatting, while others are sitting and eating at makeshift picnic tables. Haphazardly strung lights give the scene a festive atmosphere. But this isn’t someone’s private party; it’s a gathering of food carts in Portland.

She visits several of the standbys; Potato Champion, Whiffies, Spella Caffè, Ziba’s Pitas (one of my favorites), and Brunch Box, and relative new comer Addy’s Sandwich Bar.

Recently opened Mississippi Marketplace gets a mentions, along with Nuevo Mexico, and new German pub Prost, which though not a food cart, permits patrons to enjoy food cart entrees with their imported beers.

Accompanying the article is a photo gallery of Portland food carts, and details about the carts featured in the article.

And of course, the pioneering Portland Food Carts site gets a well deserved nod too.
