Running a restaurant is a form of artistry, Güero owner Megan Sanchez says
Megan Sanchez always thought she’d be working in the arts. But her taco bike delivery service morphed into a food cart which soon became Güero, a Northeast Portland restaurant celebrated in local and national media.
Critics praise Sanchez’s freshly made tortas and the warm, eclectic vibe of her dining room. She draws on her Mexican and Egyptian heritage to create a culinary vision all her own. And Sanchez realized along the way that she actually is working in the arts — just not the ones she’d imagined.
Sanchez told Eric Slade of OPB’s “Oregon Art Beat” about food, art, and where it all began.
