Apparently not satisfied with proving to its own residents that Seattle serves up some pretty awesome street food, the organizers of Mobile Chowdown are upping the ante by inviting several Portland vendors to the newest incarnation.
The event will also have a new location to go along with its new format. Instead of a nondescript parking lot in the Interbay neighborhood, the March 13 event will take place across the street from Safeco Field, coinciding with the first day single-game tickets will go on sale for the Mariners.
Seattle vendors include standbys: Marination Mobile (winner of GMA Weekend’s best street food in the country contest), El Camion, Dante’s Inferno Dogs, Anita’s Crepes, Kaosamai Thai, Gert’s BBQ, Skillet Street Food (returning after missing the last one), Top Pot Doughnuts, Here & There Grill, and Veraci Pizza along with newcomer to the event Hallava Falafel (someplace I’ve been meaning the try). Portland vendors include: Burgerville (who I recently reviewed), Koi Fusion, Potato Champion, and Whiffies.
The event will once again be free, taking place from 10 a.m. to 3 p.m.
