Portland is the promised land for food that is both good and cheap, and the city's hundreds of food carts are partially responsible for the city's reputation as a place to fill up well for little. Portland's food carts are receiving a lot of deserved attention these days, which is all good.
My cousin Jason Robertson runs one of Portland's best food carts. For years, Robertson has helmed a catering business called Headwaters Cafe. And now he's running a great food cart at SW 3rd and Ash in downtown Portland, which he operates out of a vintage Streamline trailer. Food Carts Portland, the definitive guide to the food cart scene in the city, reviewed Headwaters/The Empress back in March.
I've been lucky enough to eat my cousin's delicious grub for years. Now anyone in Portland can do so as well, cheaply (from $5) and effortlessly. Run, walk, or tiptoe your way toward his sandwiches and salads at SW 3rd and Ash.
Wow! Been reading a lot of stuff about Portland and their food carts. I know it's been years since this post but I'm planning on visiting Portland next month. I hope your cousin's cart is still there. I might tip toe my way there from my hotel.:)
Thank you for sharing and all the best.
