Food Cart Pod: SE 12th & Hawthorne

This is one of Portland's first food card "pods" and still one of the best. Try your hand at something from our brothers to the north with a little PNW flavor at Potato Champion (poutine and more!) or cure that hangover before it happens with a fried pie at Whiffie's. There is a rotating cast of carts but you'll usually find Mexican food, pizza, BBQ and crepes. You can also hop across the street to Lardo for a porchetta sandwich. Lardo started out as a food cart and just recently opened a restaurant serving their delicious sandwiches.
