Phoebe Bridgers is the proud parent of a new vegan taco: The Maxine, named for Bridgers’ very small and famous dog, wraps black beans, shiitake mushrooms, avocado, caramelized onions, and crispy corn strips in a Kernel of Truth corn tortilla. It is on sale until November 22 at all five locations of the Los Angeles restaurant HomeState. With each order, $1.25 goes to the Los Angeles wing of CASA (Court Appointed Special Advocate), a community organization advocating for children and families in child welfare and juvenile justice systems.
“HomeState is one of my favorite local restaurants,” Bridgers said in a press release. “Maxine and I should probably be cut off from their breakfast tacos by now.” Take a look at one Maxine posing with another below. The taco launch was made in conjunction with This Ain’t No Picnic festival, where Bridgers performs this weekend.
Previous collaborators in HomeState’s Band Taco series include Vampire Weekend, Spoon, and the Roots’ Questlove.
