Brunch should be anything but a solo endeavor, so in the spirit of gathering together for the a.m. meal, the assembled eateries of SE Hawthorne Blvd's pioneering late-night cart pod Cartopia are waking up early to collaborate on a pod-wide brunch menu. 

The new weekend-only brunch offerings will be available beginning Saturday, August 3, and will include 17 dishes from Potato Champion, Pyro Pizza, Perierra Creperie, and Whiffies Fried Pies. Load up with plates like:

• The "Pig in Dress" pizza from Pyro topped with bacon, onion, mozzarella, pecorino romano, and drizzled with maple syrup
• Potato Champion's take on the Benedict, with all the fixin's, perched on top of their famous fries
• Whiffies' spin on breakfast hand pies
• and Perierra Creperie's seasonal selection of omelets and breakfast crepes, complete with full sit-down service (with real knives and forks!)

Cartopia's morning meal takes place every Saturday and Sunday from August 3 through September, from 9 am to 2 pm. Rise and shine!
