Portland’s hottest new food cart Sphnik-ter is taking the city of roses and its foodies by storm. The ultra hip food cart changes locations on an hourly basis and where it shows up next is a total surprise. Sphink-ter is the first food cart of its kind to blend Eastern Block comfort food with Peruvian and Galapagos Island fusion. Chronicles of Moobs head writer Marty Bubbles was recently able to interview the mysterious food cart owner Crimson.
Marty B: Thanks for taking time out of your busy schedule to talk to us about Sphink-ter. Where did this idea come from?
Crimson: Yes. It came from a need to have East meet South America. I had traveled to Peru and was amazed by the people and the animals, in particular Yaks, I named my child Yak. One day I was in some sort of altitude trance and I had a vision of a dish of simplicity and complexity, pain and happiness and rain and drought. It was my inspiration.
Marty B: Interesting, tell me more of your signature dish?
Crimson: The Chimbote Nest is a dish that is very dear to me. We take pubes of Peruvian Sherpa and burry it in the ground for a month. Then we dig it up sprinkle it on quinoa that has been boiling at high altitudes and serve it in a conch shell.
Marty B: Your food cart used to have wheels but now it doesn’t please explain?
Crimson: We now only travel by hot air balloon. It is more gratifying. We have a large balloon that we attach to the cart that allows us to fly away when needed.
Marty B: Any new projects in the works?
Crimson: I have a new cart that shall be around soon. All we will be serving is hot flavored steam. The name of the cart will be hot steam.
