Marination Station has announced that their new fixed-place restaurant will be open for business starting this Friday.

Nostalgic for the good old days when street food only came on wheels or just plain Hungry. Skillet’s trailer is serving lunch today over on Union while Pai’s is dishing on E Pike near Broadway.
I gotta figure out how to write these press releases. That’s almost as arrogant as molly moon’s “awarding” a store to Madrona.
One of my only Portland envies is the amazing selection of food carts..
I completely agree, erkah.
That’s pride. It’ll hurt when these uppity restaurants start to close…there is such a thing as over-saturation you know.
Its almost like a self-jerk off.
