Bay-Area Ghost Kitchen Restaurant Man vs. Fries Has Landed in Portland - Eater Portland
"In 2018, Bonhorst turned that passion into Man vs. Fries, a Bay Area pop-up serving battered and seasoned fries topped with carne asada or stuffed in burritos. This fall, Man vs. Fries landed in cities along the West Coast via Reef Kitchens, a ghost kitchen company that houses several delivery-only food businesses in a single 'vessel' — basically, a large food cart. One of those cities was Portland, and Bonhorst isn’t done yet; after opening Man vs. Fries’ first Portland location November 12, he’ll open another in a matter of days. The flagship dish at Man vs. Fries starts with a choice of fries — seasoned straight or curly — followed by a choice of toppings. Bonhorst offers a choice of carne asada or pollo asada, with a foundation of cheese, sour cream, guacamole, and 'secret sauce.' 'NorCal' style sticks to those toppings, while the 'SoCal' style also includes grilled onions, cilantro, and jalapeños. Man vs. Fries has grown into a larger operation, however, with chicken-bacon-ranch fries, the Crunchwrap-adjacent 'Cali Crunch' stuffed with Flamin’ Hot Doritos or Cheetos, and other hype-beast snacks, desserts, and burritos." - Brooke Jackson-Glidden
