The Best Affordable Restaurants in Portland
"This micro counter-service restaurant in the hip, industrial Zipper complex serves a mammoth fried-chicken sandwich for $12; the crispy behemoth is one of the best versions of the quintessential sandwich in Multnomah County. For those who want some spice in their lives, the Nashville-style hot chicken comes decently close to the real thing, served searingly hot on a thick slice of white bread with pickles, also for $12. Vegetarians will save a buck with the fried tofu sandwich, a honey brioche bun layered with crispy tofu, cabbage slaw, and buttermilk sauce. And for those seeking something shareable, the $9 dan dan fries are a favorite of Portland podcast royalty Aubrey Gordon." - Katrina Yentch, Eater Staff
