"Portland may be home to a high percentage of transplants from outside the Northwest, but it’s a bit of a mystery how this rainy Northwest riverport punches so far above our weight in Louisiana-style cuisine. Located in the newer Original food cart pod on Southeast Powell, Matt and Memere’s cart may not be the city’s most celebrated Cajun food, but its po’boy sandwiches are second to none. Served on crispy Leidenheimer bread from New Orleans, po’boy options include tender catfish, crunchy shrimp, chewy alligator, and fried green tomatoes in tangy Remoulade sauce. The Original offers ample covered and uncovered outdoor seating." - Nathan Williams
