Mississippi Avenue Walking Food Tour
Overview
Portland’s historic Mississippi District is home to killer live music venues, eclectic shops, and some of the best restaurants, bars and food carts in any city – especially if you know what to look for. On our walking food tour of Mississippi Avenue, that’s exactly what I’ll show you!
Some of the delicious food and drinks we'll sample:
- Perfectly cooked egg sandwiches on fresh-baked sourdough.
- Locally roasted coffee or craft cocktail (or coffee cocktail!).
- Mouth-watering cake & brioche donuts with seasonal ingredients.
- Deliciously authentic cubanos and sweet plantains with mojitos.
- Melt-in-your-mouth brisket & more from the West Coast’s #1 BBQ spot.
Come hungry, thirsty, and curious! The food is the star of this tour, but you’ll also learn about historic Mississippi Ave and the city of Portland. This neighborhood is weird and wonderful, and I’ll share some of the most interesting tidbits along the way.
