Hey Jennifer, I agree. In fact, I have written about the Stumptown food cart scene, in a couple of posts from a trip I took there for a food conference in April. We even went to the annual food cart fest. Great, innovative, and wholesome cheap eats indeed.

We walk everywhere in our small town to discover new places to shop and eat (well, or to go to all our old favorite haunts). I recently discovered the food cart scene in Portland. You have to go there to write about it. The BEST food EVER. Cheap. And all in walking distance of the various hoods…

I deliberately bought in the flats so I could walk/bike to everything easily. I can walk to a ton of stuff, and if I feel like biking, encompass even more. Love 123!

As of the 2006 Census there were 4,000 people who live in the town, but it is a rural service centre that serves a catchment area of about 28k- or so says Wikipedia. So not SUPER tiny, but certainly not Auckland.

Alisa, you raise a good point: The toll the recession has taken on the restaurant biz. I don’t doubt that small towns have struggled during the downturn. What would you like to see succeed in your neck of the woods?
