Today I tried out a new cart at the pod on SW 3rd between Stark and Washington - The Hope Kitchen - they're on the Washington side, up against the Mama Mia's building.
This is a cart with a story, and a mission - it is run by people who lost a relative to colorectal cancer, and in his memory, they're making up dishes that contain no red meat as a healthier alternative to avoid dangers of excessive red meat consumption.
Chicken and Turkey are featured, as well as potato salad, collard greens, Quinoa, and cornbread.
I ordered the Tamale Pie meal. The pie is made with turkey, cornbread, onions, jalapeno, and tomato sauce.. with melted cheese - and the meal comes with leafy collard greens and potato salad.
I initially went straight for the collard greens, to give the tamale pie a moment to cool down. They were cooked just right, not soggy at all. Spicy and Delicious.
The Tamale Pie -- MMm, this is good stuff. A slight kick to it, with a slight sweet taste to the corn bread, it fits together nicely with the slightly browned cheese crust on top. Good sized portions, too.
Potato Salad - also memorable - a little more egg than I'm used to, which is fine by me.
I'll be back to this cart, for sure.
