Phoebe Bridgers pays tribute to her dog Maxine with vegan taco for charity
Phoebe Bridgers has branched her philanthropic efforts out to include the launch of her own taco, teaming up with LA restaurant HomeState to create ‘The Maxine’ in a fundraising effort for the city’s CASA (Court Appointed Special Advocate) wing.Named for Bridgers’ black pug – who is occasionally spotted at Bridgers’ shows, appeared onstage with her earlier this month, and made a cameo in her recent Seth Meyers interview – ‘The Maxine’ features black beans, shiitake mushrooms, avocado, caramelised onions and crispy corn strips inside a soft corn tortilla. The vegan taco will be available at all five of HomeState’s LA locations between now and November 22.“HomeState is one of my favorite local restaurants; Maxine and I should probably be cut off from their breakfast tacos by now,” Bridgers said in a statement announcing the collaboration.
