Oh, I’m so sad they’ve closed. Does anyone know if this is the real end of Choza’s? I’m holding out hope that they’ve simply moved locations.

The food there is pretty amazing. Hands down the best fried rice in PDX area

Great flavors & good ingredients (stir-fried french-fries? HELL YEAH!). Their green sauce is to die for. Hands-down my favorite cart in PDX.

Ouroboros, you’re absolutely right. Chaufa is Peruvian for fried rice.

Any visitors to the Oregon Country Fair MUST seek out and patronize the Peruvian booth there. The food is fabulous. The dish that really lingers in my memory is an emanada with a cassava dough–deep fried savory goodness. Yum. Can’t wait till July…..

I just had the Lomo Saltado (with beef). Tasty.

Any sense as to whether these dishes (and the similar over Tallarin Saltado over noodles rather than over rice) are a result of the Asian immigration of the 19th Century?

This Peruvian cart serves the best Peruvian food I have had in Portland! Love them.

You can choose from about 5 plates, meat or veg, and all come with a salad.

The higlights are:
- Lomo Saltado
- Chaufa
- Tallarin Saltado

Mmmm, just writing this makes me want to go there on Monday!
