🏅Mississippi Food Destination: Mole Mole
Mole Mole has opened at North Mississippi Avenue’s food cart pod, tipping the area into a food destination. It’s the second Mole Mole, specializing in the sauce it's named for, but the cart also offers its own “nuance” on more familiar Mexican dishes, says Portland Monthly. [Portland Monthly]
🍓 Where It’s Always Berry Season
Writer Jamie Cattanach offers heaps of praise on Bastion Coffee’s jam latte: It’s a sweet and tasty way to kick off berry season. Go there, sip that! (It’s also on Mississippi.) [Willamette Week]
