David was very knowledgeable of Portland and it’s history and was a fantastic tour guide. We got to enjoy foods I hadn’t tried before and learned a lot about the cuisine in Portland and enjoyed going to some smaller spots that were not touristy.

We got to experience a full spectrum of Portland's eclectic food scene, and we were so full afterwards. Everything from a unique breakfast sandwich, Vietnamese chicken, Japanese ramen (with a hint of Oregon's hazelnuts), unusual donuts from Voodoo, Stumptown Coffee, and freshly made pretzels. Rebecca, our tour guide was funny and quite knowledgeable about the history of Downtown Portland.

Full description

Stroll through Pioneer Square learning the rich history of Portland’s origin while uncovering some unique stories and artwork.

At our first food stop, you will then visit an electric side of Downtown, where the food cart craze started.
For early tours you will indulge in a Japanese/American fusion classic. For tours starting at 3:30pm and later, you will experience a palate blessing from the patron Saint of flavor herself, Stella, with her infusion of Mexican and Southern American chicken and ribs.

Next is our Secret Dish that you won’t be able to keep private.
Next you will walk through the lively Pearl District and sample a twisted Northeastern classic.

Your next stop made this city’s favorite chef, locally famous with her Vietnamese delicacy.

For the cherry on top-we stop, at a hidden gem: a local favorite hideaway packed full of flavor! Where the story is just as sweet as the food.

The tour was very enjoyable. We had a chance to taste food that we would not have had a chance to sample had we not been on the tour.
