Hillel at the PI’s tasting menu has a pretty snarky comment about cheap food in Portland vs. Seattle.
He says, “Portland, Oregon is filled with multiple clusters of street food vendors organized in little parks of vans, trucks, trailers, and shacks. Some of the street food is ok, but a non-trivial percentage of it is fantastic. It’s simple, it’s often cheap, it’s focused, and it adds a dimension of choice in eating across Portland that makes it somewhere you want to be. ”
How come there is not more of this in the U District?
In the meantime, there is GREAT NEWS! The Mediterranean Kitchen is back in Seattle! This is likley the best Greek/Lebanese, Arab food ever. The Farmer’s Chicken Wings are amazing.
