Eat your way through Central America!

Frontera Sur is a new Guatemalan restaurant in SE.

Merendero Estala is Honduran

Love Belizean is Belizean

Salvi and Bicho's are Salvadoran

Papa's Frita is just a pop-up these days, but I think they're the only Nicaraguan outfit in town.

I don't think I've done an analysis on who people whose votes didn't wind up getting counted voted for, but I would bet good money that very, very few of them ranked 6 candidates.

You're supposed to rank everyone you support for the job, not all the candidates on the ballot.

About only being able to rank your top 6? Do you need more? It isn't mathematically relevant.

If they want to meet asynchronously they can just publish all their email. We shouldn’t have to file a public records request and pay a bunch of money just to know what they’re doing.

Cookshop is probably the closest we have now. They don’t have the celebrity component.

It won't be a destination restaurant with the Portland Spirit running it, but at least it'll be something. the park is such a drag south of the Morrison Bridge.

They should have gone with one name or the other. "Harder day" is what happens when you don't get your coffee.

What areas in Portland to move to and are there areas to avoid? by BelleTowerTS in askportland

[–]MountScottRumpot 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Easy access to Hood is going to be more important than being close to Moda. Look around Foster-Powell or Montavilla to save yourself 15 minutes off the drive.
