July 17, 2014

Here's a rundown of new and events this coming weekend:

Love Belizean, a food cart displaced by the closing of the downtown food cart lot on SW 6th and Columbia has launched a Kickstarter
campaign to raise funds for a brick and mortar just down the street from where their cart was located. So excited to see them move on to their next adventure.

Viking Soul Food
has reopened on a limited basis at the Good Food Here lot. Their summer hours will be 12-8pm on the weekends or until they sell out. There will be a limited menu also. Head on down for your Scandinavian fix.

Dustin Knox, owner of Perierra Creperie at Cartopia was the guest on Right at The Fork
podcast this week. A great discussion with an individual who started a successful food cart, went on to other endeavors and how he did it.
