Where to Find Jaw-Dropping Peruvian Food in Portland and Beyond
"Yes, even Peruvian cuisine can be bowl-ified, as Mama’s Peruvian Bowls, a cart at the CORE pod on 82nd proves. The paper bowls contain a deceptively large amount of food, with options like lomo saltado, stir-fried beef and french fries served over rice. Peruvians also like their spaghetti, offered here as tallarines verdes, in a creamy pesto, and a la huancaina, a rich cheese sauce, yellow from aji amarillo paste. Diners can also choose from empanadas, ceviche, and vegetarian versions of traditional dishes using mushrooms in lieu of steak, the only meat on the menu." - Krista Garcia
