"Located next to the Portland State University campus, Jong Can serves student budget-friendly Cantonese dishes in sizable portions. The restaurant’s name is Cantonese for “lunch,” or literally, “middle meal.” The menu offers a variety of fried rice and noodle dishes, which have good “wok hei” — the phrase translates to “breath of the wok” and describes the essence imparted to food during stir frying. Order the pork chop fried rice, which features a deep-fried pork cutlet, or one of the cheesy baked rice options, which blankets melty cheese over fried rice with proteins like curry chicken or salmon for the ultimate Chinese comfort food." - Seiji Nanbu, Janey Wong, Rebecca Roland
