5 Foods the Picky Eater Must Try in Portland Right Now
Portland's foodie scene is unrivaled in much of the state. It doesn't matter what kind of food you want, Portland does it better than the rest. If you're looking to dive face first into the Portland culinary scene but you're not the most adventurous eater, these dishes will satisfy cravings you didn't even know you had.
OTTO's Mashed Potato Bacon Scallion Pizza
The toppings at OTTO range from your standard pepperoni pie to your more creative mango pulled pork and this mashed potato bacon scallion. I've never met a single person who didn't love the flavor of this pizza.
Pai Men Miyake's Paitan Ramen
Real ramen that didn't come in a packet of dehydrated ingredients. How adventurous of you! The Paitan Ramen is my go-to hangover cure, rainy day meal, or Sunday comfort food option.
Holy Donuts
Holy Donuts aren't your standard donut. They're made with potatoes which makes them slightly more adventurous than your standard coffee shop pastry. The flavors are ridiculous, though, like the Allen's Coffee Brandy.
Blue Rooster Company's Three Little Pigs Poutine
Three forms of pig on top of tots with melted cheese curds. This Instagrammer said it best: Vegans Beware.
The Corner Room's Homemade Pasta
Any dish on any of 'The Rooms' menus are delicious, but I'm a big fan of the garganelli with butternut squash sauce at The Corner Room. The pasta specials are always on point.
