The Best Dishes Eater Portland Ate in April 2025 | Eater Portland
"Operating as a Mexican-fare pop-up inside a busy downtown café, the blueberry tamal—often paired with a cafe de olla—is described as "an affordable taste of the fine dining life for nearby workers’ lunches." The reviewer praises the tamal: "It’s creamy, the softness of the masa mingling with the actual cream on top. It’s moist and hot, gratefully, as dry tamales suck. Its crumble is delicate, and the blueberries' deep, fruity flavor sings through. Dashes of pistachio make for a smart counter-balancing crunch." The recommendation is emphatic: as the reviewer puts it, "walk don’t run" to this pop-up. — Paolo Bicchieri, associate editor" - Brenna Houck
