    Wagsy's Hot Beef Sandwiches Location: SW 5th and Oak Hours: Weekdays, 10am-4pm The Story: Family is the strongest bond one will have in his or her life. To me, it’s always a cool story when a parent and child take a common interest and open a business together based on that shared link. At Wagsy’s, which opened in early January 2012, Kevin and his son, Eric, share their love for sandwiches with the public. Wagsy is Kevin’s nickname, given to him by some of his good friends. There are five sandwiches on the regular menu, each using a fresh Italian roll. Several sandwiches are named…

They would sit around and simply write down their favorites on the bridge pads,…

    Mira's Ladle Location: SE 40th and Hawthorne Hours: Wed-Sun, 12-7pm The Story: When I need a hearty soup to get me back on track, I lean towards those from eastern Europe and Russia. Having lived there for a time, something deep in my soul craves the flavors and boldness of the region. Mira’s Ladle has what a growing man needs. Mira, a former architect, designed the cart from which she serves her Polish cuisine. The menu starts off with Leczo, a vegan and gluten free chili served over brown rice. She also serves barszcz, a traditional Polish beet soup. Purchasing locally grown beets…

    Velas Cart Location: N Lombard and Burr Hours: Daily, 11am-7pm This guest post was written by Scott Batchelar, a regular at many of the carts throughout the city. Thank you Scott. The Story: “Welcome to Velas, how are you tonight?” says Mario Vela the owner and chef of the Velas food cart as I walk up to this small food cart pod which includes a Kruger’s Farm Market and Captured by Porches Microbrewery. In Portland we have close to fifty Mexican Food Carts and for me the trick is finding the gems at each cart. I looked over the extensive menu of Mexican and American foods at…

  • Wondering why Matt’s Coffee is sometimes missing labels?

    ayr
    27 Jan 2012 | 2:59 pm
    Matt just stopped in. Matt, of Matt’s Coffee. We found his coffee in 2010 and got around to visiting him this past summer. He uses the wood-fired roaster you might have heard us talk about. While here he said: “I didn’t realize you show my bags like that! I’m going to have to be more careful on the labels.” If you frequent HSQ you may have noticed bags with funny label placement, or no label at all. Matt says he makes the labels on his laser printer, but that his house is a long drive from his roaster. So if he forgets a label here or there he just pulls out the…

  • Coffee and donuts events

    lucia

    We had a little coffee and donuts event this morning at LMA. We fried up cider donuts and gave them away to anyone who bought a coffee. We’re thinking of making these a regular thing. Well, sort of. You’ll never see donuts on the menu every day (sorry, Dustin). But maybe one day per week per Clover location? Could be fun. And it would give us an excuse to taste coffee with you on a regular basis. What do you think? Any customers want to suggest a weekly day/time for donuts and coffee at their Clover location?

  • Sanitation booklet

    Don’t worry, Lucia’s just pretending. Ayr and I have been thinking about how to train folks on safety and sanitation. I just finished putting together a sanitation handbook that managers can keep at their locations and go over with new hires. Version 1 of the handbook covers some basics of Serv-Safe, including hand-washing, proper uniform, tasting versus eating, and the proper time to change gloves.

  • Pickles for all

    Everybody loves pickles. That’s Violet trying to make a grab. She’s only 8 months, so it probably wouldn’t be as good an idea as she might be thinking. The grape pickles are the ones everybody is loving. Sort of a funny thing, right? Grapes, pickled? They’re a little salty, a little sour. Really yummy. Stop by Grillos, next door to the HUB. Buy some for yourself.

    This is Linda. If you can’t read her shirt, it says “FedEx.” She drives a big truck and delivers goodies – that might be why we get along so well. Linda has been a customer at LMA since we first opened up a few months ago. She is working her way through the menu (and as you can see, she is pretty excited about it). If you’re Linda, or you’re another LMA customer, check @cloverLMA around 9am tomorrow. We’ll be doing a little coffee and donuts event. $2 coffee, $0 donut, til they run out.
