Members The Great Waldo Pepper Posted November 3, 2010 Members Share Posted November 3, 2010 Portland has one of the best selections of food joints of any city I've lived in or visited. Unless you are looking for Indian... Though Texans like to move here and talk smack for some reason. Alas there is more to food than BBQ or Tex-Mex. VooDoo doughnuts are just way too sweet. They have a good thing going for them though as the line out the door daily indicates. I just don't enjoy getting gacked out on sugar. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members The Great Waldo Pepper Posted November 3, 2010 Members Share Posted November 3, 2010 i dont know, i disagree. the crust is supposed to be "burnt," it carmelizes and brings out plenty of flavor notes. i've been drunk and burned pizza before, and tried to say "{censored} it" and eat it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members |\|\|\ Posted November 3, 2010 Members Share Posted November 3, 2010 oh man, for real? when i've been to LCC it's been great. i DID forget about my actual favorite mexican place, which i always forget because i never get to go there: tortilleria y tienda de leon on 162nd and glisan. i've never been to que pasa cantina, perhaps i'll give it a shot.

Members linusâ„¢ Posted November 3, 2010 Members Share Posted November 3, 2010 I don't know that I've ever heard someone attack Voodoo Doughnuts before....unbelievable! i visited this summer. i was not impressed with my 45min wait for that doughnut. its cute that it exists, but not worth it for me. made me feel ill, diabetes was on its way.. traffic there blows, but i am used to driving 80 on my expressways.whats with it being illegal for you all to pump your own gas? neat place, Powell books FTMFW. the Oregon coast / Ecola State Park was super cool, not seaside though, that was lame.

Members humancertainty Posted November 3, 2010 Members Share Posted November 3, 2010 Ground Kontrol is pretty sweet, too. Especially the upstairs pinball room.And Berbati's is my favorite room to play in. Possibly in the whole world. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members tantamo Posted November 3, 2010 Members Share Posted November 3, 2010 don't walk through old town by yourself at 3am.. How will I get my crack then? I used to work at the main post office downtown, got off around 1 am and had to walk from there to my apartment near psu every morning. Yeah, it get's annoying having to turn down crack on every other block. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members tantamo Posted November 3, 2010 Members Share Posted November 3, 2010 voodod donuts is moronic. It's only famous because there's so little else going on the food channel has to show it every time it goes to portland. I don't know anyone that has ever actually been there, then again I don't associate with hipsters or hippies. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members iblamesummers Posted November 3, 2010 Members Share Posted November 3, 2010 there's great diversity & pizza plurality in Chicago--deep dish, stuffed, thin et cetera. NY pizza is extremely one-dimensional. NY pizza does one thing good while Chicago pizza does several things greatly. NY Pizza is okay but if pizza is truly yr RELIGION then i am sorry the best pizza in North America is to had in CHICAGOLAND AND NORTTHWEST INDIANA. peace.

Members The Great Waldo Pepper Posted November 4, 2010 Members Share Posted November 4, 2010 Pizza... I nominate Flying Pie... Good stuff.

Members humancertainty Posted November 4, 2010 Members Share Posted November 4, 2010 Magic Gardens. That's right. There was another one I had a pretty good time at. It's in SE, they kind of target towards a metal/punk clientele, easy to score drugs at.... A gorgeous naked woman came up to me and complimented me on my Corrupted shirt. Then talked to me about Corrupted for a minute. Then walked off. {censored}, I can't remember what that place was called, either. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
