I live in Portland, Oregon. Where should I eat?
I don't really care because I already cook on par with big cities(Except for pizza because that's actually complicated, if you want it perfect)
I know das rite
>>20427206>>20427210He didn't ask for a boring person to blog about xer boring sandwiches whilst using cringeworthy ebonics
>>20427198burgerville has biscuits and gravy for breakfast for six bucks
Oven and Shaker
>>20427198I haven’t been yet but Kann is supposed to be really good.
>>20427363More like cover and baker. Smoke weed 420.
>>20427198The open air drug market that surely exists there
>>20427198I moved away 15 years ago, but I always used to recommend Andina. What ever happened to Peruvian food being "the next big thing"?>>20427420You can buy drugs anywhere if you aren't a loser.
>>20427198Either at home so you can afford to leave the West Coast or if you don't have one just smoke the usual meth/fent combo instead of eating.
>>20427198Ox is a great Argentinean steakhouse. Ask to sit at the bar in front of their grill and watch the two ladies there grill various cuts of meat during your dinnerAfuri is a pretty good izakaya place; check it out as well. When I was there they had a sage cocktail with egg white foam, it was fantastic
>>20427198elsewhere
Here's an example of Portland pizza. You're better off leaving.
>>20427198Arz Cafe
>>20427966That looks good though. Probably $45 for what looks like a personal size child's pizza though.
>>20427198Inside
At home. You should cook something nice.
>>20427934Portland is easily one of the top 3 food cities in the US, retard.
>>20427198BasiliskBest chicken sandwich I've had.
>>20427198Didn't you fuckups vote for biden, and do sacuary city stuff. You get what you pay for, oh no, everyone else has to. You get what you voted for and now your complaining. FUCK OFF!
>>20428458The problem with Portland is that it's TOO desirable, which means too many people move there, and there simply aren't enough high paying jobs to sustain the price of housing when there's that much demand. It has nothing to do with Biden or immigrants; Portland as white as fuck, and the unregulated housing market is more of a republican problem anyway.Portland was pretty cool 20 years ago.
>>20427198Is Portland one of those super liberal cities where they let crime run rampant if it means they can claim to not be racist?
>>20427198lead. Fire on the Mountain has some really good wings and Sizzle Pie is good pizza.
>>20427198Portland, Oregon
>>20428475> unregulated housing marketPortland has an urban growth boundary mandated by law. This artificially restricts the supply of housing.
>>20428644>Portland has an urban growth boundary mandated by lawI've never heard of anything that would purposefully restrict housing supply. Why does this law exist/what was the inspiration for even suggesting it to whatever Portland's version of a city council is called? The way I'm understanding it, it doesn't sound like it would have any practical use.
>>20427198Mary's Club
>>20427198How accurately does the show Portlandia portrayed Portland? I've always wanted to visit
Pretty sure all they have there is soy.
>>20428703The State of Oregon didn't want the city to sprawl out so they imposed an boundary over which the city cannot expand. If a developer wants to build new housing, it must be within the Urban Growth Boundary (UGB). Only once the State of Oregon is satisfied that the city has run out of vacant space can the city apply for an increase in the size of the UGB. But it's not just about empty lots, there must also be a high ratio of dense housing to single family homes. As long as there are many areas of the city with detached single family homes that could be host dense apartment and condo complexes, the UGB cannot be expanded. The last UGB review was in 2018, at which time it was decided that Portland had plenty of empty space within the UGB for the next twenty years. In 2038, there will be another review. Until then, housing developers are restricted to property within the UGB.
>>20428442>Portland is easily one of the top 3 food cities in the US, retard.Portland definitely punches above its weight, food-wise, but you're the fucking retard, retard, if you thing it's one of the top 3 food cities. SFLASDNYCBostonChicagoHoustonPhiladelphiaAll better
>>20429368is philly really that good?
>>20429558i hear its horse shit is divine
>>20427210put that in your suicide manifesto, my dude :)!
>>20427206>>20427210>>20427268>>20427418>>20427420>>20427569>>20427934>>20427966>>20428458>>20428629>>20429224>>20429226>>20429583thank you for correcting the record, Sean Hannity
>>20427569>just smoke the usual meth/fent combowhy would i do that? i don't live in flyover country
>>20429558Absolutely.>>20429270What the hell is the point of all that? And what's stopping developers from building in towns/suburbs just over the boundary?
>>20429270>If a developer wants to build new housing, it must be within the Urban Growth Boundary (UGB).Explain this
>>20427268>>20429583Newfag tourist(s)
>>20427198Voodoo donuts :)
>>20429904>Voodoo donuts :)Overrated but good and worth a visit
>>20429705>What the hell is the point of all that?Artificially restrict supply and the resale value of their home or property within the UGB goes up faster than normal. I assume that's what it is, why else would they do it?
>>20427198Local here,Kaede is my favorite restaurant in the city. It’s a small sushi place run by a Japanese couple and you usually need to book a reservation 2 weeks out.Botto’s BBQ is Texas-tier good if you want a counter serve restaurant.Goose Hollow Inn makes an awesome Reuben and my favorite French dip and they actually have reasonably priced beer and food.Apizza Scholls and Ken’s Artisan Pizza are the best pizza spots but a pie is around $30.Jade Teahouse is an awesome Vietnamese restaurant.If you want a fancy/intersting dinner, Kann is a nice restaurant with really excellent food. The chef just won a James Beard award so it’s a little difficult to get a reservation sometimes.My friend is the executive chef at the Olympia Provisions restaurant east of the Morrison bridge and would definitely recommend that if you want the “New-American” style of cuisine
>>20427198Reel em innBest fried chicken Ive ever had and I lived in Alabama and Tennessee. On par with fresh Publix fried chicken
>>20429705>What the hell is the point of all that? It's to browbeat developers into building higher rises and mid density over sprawl. >And what's stopping developers from building in towns/suburbs just over the boundary?In some bordering municipalities, nothing. But others have severe restrictions about land usage to preserve the rural character.
>>20427198ask me circa 2008 I could tell you. Now? why the duck are you in Portland?
Ladda HouseGood Thai food that actually can be spicy
>>20427210>no salt or peppercute
>>20429705>And what's stopping developers from building in towns/suburbs just over the boundary?The state government.>>20429717Some possibilities: Pre-existing before the boundary was in place, special use permit, a farm,Or we're all lying to you, there's no such thing as an urban growth boundary, we made it up , created hundreds of web pages about it, and got people in the state and city governments to go along with it. Yeah, that's probably the real answer Sherlock. Seriously, if you really are interested, you're connected to the internet, you can easily find the answers. Or you can continue acting like it's some grand conspiracy against you.
>>20428644I did grand jury in Portland in ~2009, and felony flats is a real thing. Seriously. I was in grand jury #1, which is violent crimes (2 and 3 are drugs and white collar/financial crimes), and literally 90% of every case I heard was right past 82nd.
>>20429368>punches above its weightWell yeah. I don't consider LA or NYC a single city. It doesn't count if you have to drive/ride the subway 2 hours to get to something.I don't have a real ranking, but I'd say the top three are the Bay Area, Brooklyn/Queens, and Portland. You're crazy if you think any of the last 4 on your list can compare.
>>20430391Seriously? Houston fucking slays Portland. Have you ever even been there? And Chicago? You're fucking retarded. The main problem with Portland is that other than the ethnic food on the outskirts of the city (82nd and beyond, Gresham, Beaverton, Hillsboro) which can be great, the restaurants there often suffer from the wild inconsistency that characterizes a small city with an inbred food scene. No one goes there to excel---city full of annoying dilettantes. Goes for their much vaunted (by morons) beer scene as well.
>>20430219I thought the boundary prevented Portland from expanding, not developers from developing. Where I live, everything is historic so it's sufficient to develop in the city proper without a BUNCH of red tape and bullshit and the historical commission only meets every so often so you have to wait literally years if you want to build within city limits. Rather, the vast majority of new development occurs just outside the city line.
>>20430787>sufficientDIFFICULT, rather
>>20430773I lived in Chicago for 2 years, and spent almost a decade regularly traveling to Austin and Houston. I get what you're saying about PDX being kind of dilettante, but bringing up Beaverton or Hillsboro is pretty funny. That said, I haven't lived in Portland in over a decade, so can't really speak for how it is today. Portland in the early 2000's was fucking awesome.
>>20427198You should move away and never come back because there is nothing here of value.
>>20427966dude id eat that

>>20432405I grew up in Detroit, and driving through the Houston slums had me pretty nervous.
>>20429368chicago is only slightly better than seattle (aka incredibly mediocre), portland food blows it out of the water. chicago food is cheaper at least though.

>>20429368Highly doubt BOSTONS FOOD or those others beat Chicago foodSounds like bullshit. I've had SF and Chicago they're both really close quality wise
>>20429583Why would I need to do any of that when I can already kick your pussy bitchass in real life?Are you retarded?
>>20433090You won't do shit pussy Also you chopped your dick off not me weirdo
>>20433532Can you read, fuckwit? Point was they’re all better than Portland, not a ranking. Not including Mexican and Vietnamese, even Portland, ME is better than the inferior Portland.
>>20433642Please, isn’t the Portland Maine Marathon a recreation of the route most residents would take to the city’s only plumbed toilet (first installed 5 years ago)?
>>20433497trans women are ALL homophobic gay menthey transition to escape being gaygays are treated poorly that's why trans people existif gays were accepted, trannies would stop claiming to be the opposite sex
>>20433076Fun fact: Portland has the highest number of strip clubs per capita of anywhere in the US.
>>20433767No tranny has ever claimed to be the opposite sex.
>>20427198Go to the farmers market.
