Portland Chef Luna Contreras Will Open a Snack Bar and Bakery | Eater Portland

"Contreras’s pop-up and condiment business showcases seasonal produce and Mexican flavors across pop-ups and retail: I’ve seen dishes like maitake flautas with purple potatoes and a shrimp-scallop ceviche with beets and salsa verde, and her condiment line centers on hot sauces (she recently introduced a hazelnut salsa macha). Chelo’s products turn up at local markets, and Contreras plans to expand the concept into a hybrid bakery/snack bar/market/fonda that will offer packaged snacks to-go, pastries, pints of ice cream, retail sauces and local snacks, and house-made meats like a house chorizo, while also serving as a collaborative space for other chefs when the restaurant isn’t open." - Brooke Jackson-Glidden
