Whiffies, the old-school Portland food cart, has called it quits after half a decade slinging deep fried pies in Southeast Portland, according to owner Gregg Abbott.

The cart began selling pies from the Cartopia food cart pod at Southeast Hawthorne Boulevard and 12th Avenue in 2009, with a menu of fried pies stuffed with unusual fillings such as marionberry, peanut butter creme and BBQ brisket and cheese.

On Twitter, Abbott thanked his customers, teased a new owner and concept for the cart and hinted at his upcoming plans.
