Brunch on Mississippi Food Tour

Street food is close to Portland's signature dining form, built around the food-cart pods that gather independent kitchens onto a single lot. The pods spread across the inner east side and downtown. Cartopia on the Hawthorne and Belmont corridor is one of the city's classic pods, while Matt's BBQ on the Mississippi corridor and Bing Mi downtown show the cart format at its most focused.
