10 Best Food Trucks in Portland, OR | Condé Nast Traveler

"The fact that Cartopia has its own Wikipedia page should give you some clue about its popularity and longevity. The pod, just blocks from the east end of the Hawthorne Bridge, opened 10 years ago, back when it was a novel idea for a cart to serve something other than tacos and gyros. But its late-night hours, strings of party lights, and irreverent vibe, made it an immediate hit with the young, post-show crowd—and it still is today. Its status as an icon means you’ll see plenty of tourists, too. If you've come with an extra-large appetite (or just a couple of friends), go for the Half Bird grilled over a wood fire at Chicken and Guns ($16). Split the sides between crispy potatoes and green salad for an extra $2; opt for the herby-tart chimichurri sauce on top; and ask for a 50-cent cup Peruvian Aji to add a little heat." - Danielle Centoni
