FoodBelly on Air @ 105.1 The Buzz!

By Vicki Ng

Back in February, Vanessa and I had the pleasure of sitting down with Buck Wise from 105.1 The Buzz station for a radio interview. We met at Bullard, Top Chef Doug Adam’s new restaurant inside the Woodlark Hotel. Buck mentioned that this was his first lunch interview for the show. Typically, he gets his guest to come in bright and early for his morning show, but seeing as food is our specialty, he wanted @foodbellypdx to play tour guide for him while we helped him navigate the menu.

Thanks for having us on your morning show Buck, we had a blast and you made it so easy for us to be ourselves!

Listen above to learn more about @foodbellypdx, our history, which sister is the bossy one and why our food is always cold!


EDIT: meetup alert!

Earlier this week, Buck called Vanessa with a great idea and invitation: Why don’t we host a lunch meet-up at Buck’s favorite Mexican restaurant Amelia’s? Since starting @foodbellypdx in October 2017, we’ve hosted a few “Foodbelly Foodie Meet-ups”. The meet-ups are always an open invite and we have LOVED getting to know more of the rad people in the Portland community. If you like food, and are down to meet some new people we’d love to see you at one of our meet-ups including the one tomorrow!

What: @foodbellypdx x 105.1 The Buzz Lunch Meetup

Date & Time: Thursday, April 11 @ 11:30am

Location: Amelia’s (105 Northeast 4th Avenue Hillsboro, OR 97124)
