Korean & Southern fried chicken boxes with rice, slaw
"A food cart in Pod 28, just off of East Burnside, FOMO was ahead of the curve delivering knockout KFC (Korean Fried Chicken) in Portland. The wings here are served bone-in or boneless, and come with a few options: a sticky-sweet Korean garlic sauce, a spicy Korean sauce, and a dry, Southern fried chicken style. Those who cannot choose, however, don’t have to, as diners can order them half-and-half. Even on their own the spicy wings aren’t overly hot, but a lovely level of heat to balance the gently sweet notes." - Brooke Jackson-Glidden
"Located on Southeast 28th in Pod 28, FOMO Chicken offers its rendition of both Korean-style and Southern-style fried chicken. The sesame-covered Korean variant verges into boneless wing territory, dripping in sweet or spicy garlic sauce and served with pickled radish and rice. For a more classic route, the Southern version is gluten-free and arrives alongside mashed potatoes, coleslaw, and corn." - Ron Scott
"I learned that Pod 28’s fried chicken cart FOMO Chicken will pop up at Shaku Bar for a pig roast on Thursday, August 17 from 5 p.m. to 10 p.m.; plates include roast pig, mac salad, cucumber kimchi, Hawaiian rolls, and rice for $18, and profits will be donated to the Maui Strong Fund." - Janey Wong
"Located within the inconspicuous Pod 28, this fried chicken cart keeps a relatively tight menu of boneless fried chicken boxes and wings, both in Southern and Korean styles. The cart’s staff coats boneless fried chicken in a sweet soy garlic or spicy glaze, sprinkled with sesame seeds— Korean-style chicken boxes come with coleslaw, rice, and pickled radish. The Southern fried chicken box features dry-seasoned chicken with sides of coleslaw, mashed potatoes, and corn. When available, do not miss the mac and cheese and Southern fried pickles."
"A seasoned contender in Portland’s KFC ring, FOMO is a food cart located within Pod 28 on SE 28th and Ankeny. FOMO typically serves its chicken in boxes that contain sides like coleslaw and rice, but can also be purchased in larger quantities as half or whole chickens. Patrons can choose for their chicken to be tossed up in the spicy sauce, sweet garlic, or half and half. FOMO is a great option for groups, since it’s located in a diverse pod and also offers a southern-style fried chicken option." - Seiji Nanbu
