Smorgasburg, the popular Sunday outdoor market and food bonanza, hasn’t had the ability to reopen due to the pandemic. In lieu of doing its normal weekend market, Smorgasburg is partnering with Grubhub to setup a special delivery situation with a few of its longtime vendors, including Tacos 1986, Cena Vegan, Amazebowls, Maury’s Bagels, and Spoon & Pork. Starting September 26 and 27, and extending for six weekends, Smorgasburg fans can order the following from Grubhub depending on their part of town.
Hollywood/Koreatown/Silver Lake: Banh Oui, Guelaguetza/Love Micheladas, Love Hour, Maury’s Bagels, Spoon & Pork, Tacos 1986, Ugly Drum
Pasadena: Amazebowls, Daddy’s Chicken Shack, Mama Musubi, Me + Crepe, Tacos 1986
Westwood/West LA: Bombay Frankie Company, Tacos 1986, T&T Lifestyle (only Saturdays)
Downtown: Amazebowls, Cena Vegan, Los Cochinitos, Paratta, Porchetta Republic, Shrimp Daddy, Sticky Rice, Tacos 1986
Deliveries from these vendors will be available from 11:30 a.m. to 8 p.m. on weekends (with some exceptions) until November 1. Those who use the code SMORG2020 will get $5 off a delivery order of at least $15.
