Portland's Top 10 new eateries

I can't wait to get to Portland this fall to try out Eater PDX's recommendations for new restaurants. Its list of 10 Most Anticipated Fall Openings include the Imperial inside the Hotel Lucia and Kenny & Zuke's third location in the former Pix Patisserie space on North Williams, with breakfast to late-night, deli-inspired bar food. Also in the Lucia, the Penny Diner, focusing on "Native American" flatbreads in a "diner-like atmosphere. ''


Here's the one I'm most excited about (because it's partly owned by Nick Wood, the son of good Cincinnati, Ohio friends Tom and Janie Wood): Eater PDX reports that the long-rumored new location for Bunk Sandwiches becomes a reality — in the form of "Trigger" and a "Bunk Goes Tex-Mex" concept in the basement of the Wonder Ballroom music venue at 128 NE Russell St.. Projected opening: October


Use Eater PDX the next time you're in Portland to get out of downtown and explore some of the city's food-focused neighborhoods. No need for a car. TriMet will get you anywhere you need to go. See you there!
