"Set to open at 10:30 a.m. sharp at 5801 N. Pioneer Canyon Drive in Ridgefield, this long‑anticipated outpost is billed as the Portland area’s first‑ever “cheeseburger” restaurant and will surely draw lines of piqued Portlanders. Hailing from Southern California, where the famed sandwich was birthed, its arrival has been hotly tracked by local press—down to permits and the so‑called “secret” menu—while ordinary citizens have been photographing the construction like a two‑headed calf. Novelty doesn’t stop at the “cheeseburger”: as a drive‑thru, customers can order, pay, and even eat without leaving their cars." - Harry Cheadle
