Pizza pop-up Paladin Pie will become a food cart in Portland, according to an Eater report.

Owner Leo Brill opened his pop-up after being laid off from another area pizzeria during the onslaught of the pandemic. He borrowed a pizza oven from a friend and began making pizzas while raising money for local organizations.

"A paladin is someone who commits to certain personal goals, a system of morals, whatever they may be, that guides them," Brill told the media outlet. "I don't think I'm a shining beacon of morality, but I want to do as much as I can."

As a pizza cart, Brill's pizzas will offer upscale ingredients with a Dungeons & Dragons theme. It will open in late March at the 23rd and Alberta food cart pod in Portland.
