18 Knockout Spots for Affordable Dining in Portland
"Chinese bakeries are often a strong option for low-cost dining: Fluffy char siu bao are so often delicious, satisfying, and rarely over $3. Of the city’s few Chinese bakeries, this Southeast Powell spot is an under-sung gem, with egg tarts, pineapple buns, pork buns, and more often available for $2 or less. It’s also a smart stop to make on a birthday, with whole rolled sponge cakes rarely exceeding $10." - Katrina Yentch, Eater Staff
