Went to the Mobile Chowdown looking forward to The Skilllet Burger. Reminded me of Yogi Berra's line, "Nobody goes there; it's too crowded." Because we were really hungry and didn't want a long wait we drove up Nickerson to Stell's. I need to do something about my Jones for The Burger, though. I suspect this was successful beyond anyone's expectations.

Same for me. I was eager to try out Marination Nation. But the line looked like it would easily be over a 30 minute wait - same as all the lines. So I turned and left with the plan to try them out at one of their regular locations.

This was a great idea and I hope they do it again. But by nature it's tough to feed so many people out of a window. Hopefully next time they'll figure out a way to ease the flow.

Great to see one of our mayoral candidates there- Mike McGinn was talking about changing regulations to encourage more street food, like in Portland! Good small businesses, good food at affordable prices. Sounds reasonable to me.
