Back to EpisodesWhy a Portland Restaurant Closed for Smelling Like Food
Description
Early last month, local Vietnamese restaurant chain Pho Gabo closed its Northeast location for good after a neighbor repeatedly complained to the city about food odor. How could this happen? Today on City Cast Portland, we're talking with Willamette Week arts and culture reporter Rachel Saslow, who broke the story. Saslow lays out what happened and updates us on where things landed.
