Where to Find the Best Soul Food in Portland, Oregon | Eater Portland

"Few side dishes are as reliably crowd-pleasing as mac and cheese — soul food or otherwise. In the Portland metro area, there are countless great places to find a steamy bowl of chewy noodles drenched in gooey cheese. The Mac food cart in Tigard takes these bowls a step or two further, offering everything from typical protein additions such as ground, bacon, or smoked chicken as well as unexpected options like banana peppers, honey sriracha, and dill pickles. Beyond the noodles, the Mac also serves fried or smoked chicken, as well as potatoes slow-smoked in chicken drippings." - Ron Scott
