"Mi Mero Mole, a staple in Old Town for its tacos de guisados (meat braises or stews), is under fire after comparing the experience of being a small business owner in Portland to that of George Floyd, the Black man whose killing by police has sparked ongoing national protests and a widespread racial reckoning in America, in an announcement about its permanent closure." - Alex Frane

"The spacious, casual counter service restaurant Mi Mero Mole is open on weekdays at 7:30 a.m. (and noon Saturday and Sunday) for breakfast bowls, burritos, and tacos, as well as margaritas and other agave drinks. There is no rule, legal or moral, that prohibits someone from ordering a margarita alongside a breakfast bowl or lunch burrito, though most workplaces would likely frown upon it." - Alex Frane
