2024 Is the Year of the Snack | Eater Portland
"Known for nostalgic Mexican-style snacks, Luna Contreras’s Northeast Portland pop-up Chelo has built a reputation for items like gorditas, guacamole, and totopos (she even appeared on the Netflix show Snack vs. Chef). Moving from the Dame restaurant collective into the smaller Lil’ Dame prompted a menu shift toward smaller-format snacks that better fit the space, and Contreras emphasizes keeping many options affordable (under $20) to serve her loyal following of queer people of color." - Brooke Jackson-Glidden
