Hot Suppa! has applied for a Community Development Block Grant to expand the restaurant, according to a report from the Portland Daily Sun.
After narrowly missing the cut last year in a request for $75,000, [owner Moses] Sabina is back and poised to receive $66,000 to expand the breakfast-and-lunch restaurant to include dinner. Sabina, who has owned the Hot Suppa! restaurant on Congress Street with his brother since 2006, awaits a City Council vote on March 22 to confirm his selection as a CDBG recipient.
