Mariaâs Place, a food truck popular for its Mexican and Salvadorian fare, has been a long-time staple in Kodiak. However, its creation was a happy accident for owner MarÃa Portillo. Â
Portillo said she started the food truck because she became pregnant with her fourth child. If not for her son, she might never have left the seafood processing industry to start her own business, she said.Â
Originally from El Salvador, Portillo settled on Kodiak Island in 1992 looking for economic opportunities, following in the footsteps of her husband who had moved to Kodiak eight months earlier.
