A Monster of a good time at Mt Tabor Soapbox Derby!

8.17.2026

Hello foodie friends!

I hope you made it out to Mt Tabor Soapbox Derby for a Saturday of wild fun, fabulous costumes, and some cut throat racing. Anyone else see Clifford? 😅 if you know you know. Another summer weekend of peak Portland and unbelievably just a few more weeks of August to enjoy. 

Was happy to hear that Mirisata had their most successful PDX burger week! A great reminder to keep showing up for plant-based options when the moment arises. 

Did I miss anything? Reply back and let me know what you’re getting into this week 👀

Stay hungry,
Hawnuh Lee
