wsfc2015
Food Carts Portland is proud and excited to announce that Brett Burmeister, owner and editor of the website, is heading to Singapore along with one of Portland’s food carts to attend the
World Street Food Congress
from April 8- April 12, 2015.

Brett will represent Food Carts Portland. Brett will join Portland food cart owners Daniel Huerta and Isabel Sanchez-Huerta from local favorite Churros Locos to showcase Portland’s thriving street food scene, including providing handcrafted treats to over 10,000 attendees. Portland will be in good company, alongside 25 mobile food vendors from places as diverse as Europe, Asia, and beyond.

If you're a regular reader of this site, you know Brett has been writing about Portland’s street food scene since 2008. He will speak at the Congress as part of their World Street Food Dialogue April 8-9. Brett's presentation on the Portland street food model highlights how the City of Portland and Multnomah County have supported mobile food vendors to create vibrant community spaces while at the same time supporting the growth of small, local food businesses.

The attending Portland food cart will be part of a 5-day street food jamboree with street food vendors from around the world. Churros Locos will showcase their specialty, the Churro and Churro Sundae while utilizing local Singaporean ingredients. The World Street Food Congress organizer, KF Seetoh and his team have visited Portland in the past and know the city’s reputation.
