We’re going to be honest: we’re pretty wowed by our tour guide, Joe Streckert. Not only is he a native Portlander (yes they do exist!), which is a rarity these days in a city full of transplants, he actively leads five out of our seven different types of tours. How he keeps them all straight […]

We can’t help but feel proud when Portland makes it onto another top list. In fact, we’ve made so many top lists we could be on a top list for the city that’s made the most top lists. Some of them are an obvious assertion of what Portland is all about, while others are a little […]
Step into Portland, Oregon and one thing will be noticeable right away; we have a lot of food carts… 600+ and counting! Even though we might not be the ones that started them, we have definitely perfected them. Not only can you find an array of tastes and smells from Thai to Mexican and everything […]
Portlanders have many stereotypical quirks. Supposedly, we’ll put a bird on anything that stands still long enough to get DIY’d. We all commute to work by bike (when our unicycles are in the shop).

Our Flavor Street food cart tour has been a phenomenal success this year – thank you! Still there are doubters who will only go if they know in advance which carts we’ll hit. Oh, ye of little faith. There are four really strong reasons why we don’t tell you this in advance. First, it’s not […]
Portland’s reputation as a major “foodie” city has bumped up a notch… and is likely to rise up further, after this week. The International Food Bloggers conference swings into Foodvana this weekend for a three-day extravaganza August 24-26, extolling the virtues and expanding the scope of all great things food-related – on-line. So if you […]

With Portland Walking Tours’ Flavor Street tour, debuting today at 1 PM, you can taste for yourself which of […]
Portland didn’t invent the food cart; we’ve just perfected it. For countless months, our number one question after a tour – from locals and visitors alike – has been which are the best food carts to try out.
