It's back, it's awesome, and it kicks off at 5pm tonight! Details from the press release are below, plus some of my favorite images from years past. I'll be there are usual, weighed down with camera gear, so stop by and say hi!

A benefit for the Meals on Wheels People, Street Fare will feature some of Portland’s most popular food carts. These well-known vendors will pair their delicious dishes to match perfectly with Deschutes Brewery’s beers, providing a flavorful treat for everyone there!  And of course, what’s a party without music?  Street Fare will feature some of the best live, local music around, guaranteeing an unforgettable summer night.

Portland food cart vendors have received national and international attention as some of the best in the world. Featured vendors at the Deschutes Brewery Street Fare will include:

• The Angry Unicorn
• Cheese & Crack
• PDX671
• Churros Locos
• Savor The Chill
• Touchdown’s BBQ
• Garcelon's Soup & Grilled Cheese

Four musical acts have been hand selected to keep you dancing and throughout the night.  Funkplastic will get the audience groovin’ along with their bucket drums and bongos, Mariachi Los Palmeros will play three distinct styles of Mexican Mariachi melodies, Hook and Anchor will impress the audience with a unique mix of traditional Americana music paired with rich vocal harmonies, and The Minus 5, featuring Scott McCaughey of REM and The Young Fresh Fellows, will cap off the night with their pop-styled music.

An entry fee of $10 includes one beer and food pairing, and additional pairings after that are only $4.  Taster tickets are also available for $30, which includes the entry fee, plus 7 tasters. Tickets can be purchased at the door or online at www.streetfare2013.eventbrite.com
