10 Best Food Trucks in Portland, OR | Condé Nast Traveler
"Third Avenue Food Cart Pod, a no-frills, carts-only pod (no tables, no tents) in Downtown Portland, has been affectionately dubbed Gyro District, thanks to the sheer volume of Middle Eastern carts serving—you guessed it—gyros (plus shawarma and hummus platters, too). But sprinkled among them are a few carts that offer a welcome, though somewhat random, sense of variety. There are the chewy, hand-pulled noodles at Stretch the Noodle, which draw the biggest lines (they’re totally worth the wait); for a no less tasty Asian option, Mama Chow’s Kitchen serves up garlic noodles, wonton soup packed with the eponymous dumplings, and sticky-sweet lollipop chicken wings that always sell out by noon. Though most of the carts are open until dinnertime or later, the pod is at its most popular during lunch—so plan accordingly." - Danielle Centoni
