A Guide to the Hinterland Food Cart Pod, Opening This Week | Eater Portland

"After months of delay, I see Hinterland finally opening between Hawthorne and Division on SE 50th as a part-cocktail bar, part-food cart pod with expansive heated and covered outdoor seating, an indoor bar, mounted TVs, and room for five prized carts. Taylor Gehrts has built an extensive cocktail menu that includes a full list of drinks inspired by each cart (for example, a mezcal-Tajín drink for Matt’s BBQ Tacos and a horchata spiked with rum and fernet for La Taquiza Vegana), plus standards like an Old Fashioned, a hot toddy, brunch staples such as mimosas and marys, rotating brews on tap, tall-boys and High Life, and a short wine list featuring Goodfellow pinot noir and Forge riesling. Hinterland will also offer three spirit-free cocktails using ingredients like fennel-apple or marionberry shrubs, horchata, sparkling limeade, and basics like bottled soda and iced tea, and it opens to the public on Saturday, January 22." - Brooke Jackson-Glidden
