"Set to open in mid-May at 8220 NE Davis Street, this new food cart pod will transform a lot on NE 82nd and Davis (once home to a Thai restaurant) into outdoor covered seating for up to 17 carts; brothers Jeffrey and Kevin Dennis, who come from real estate development, say they created the pod to aid the community while providing ongoing income, and they've already signed six carts. The initial roster includes Oregon-based Shawarma Express, the yet-to-open Philly cheesesteak cart Kings of Steak, ghost-kitchen American Eclectic Burger, two to-be-named Mexican and crepe carts, and a beer cart from Scout co-founder Joe St. Martin, and cart owners interested in leasing can find more information on the pod’s website." - Brooke Jackson-Glidden
