katieanne: Though mobile food trucks nationwide have seen a huge upswing in business in a down economy, Portland’s food carts (they call them carts, though they are actually trucks) have their own maverick character. Unlike most cities, where food trucks are truly mobile (and in many cases laws require them to move after a certain period), in Portland about 90% of its 400 carts never leave their spaces. Instead pods of food carts are nestled side by side in parking lots all over the city. They stay permanently at the location, paying a monthly fee of about $500.
