This year they fell all the way … [Read more...] about Reader Survey 2017: Best Thai Restaurants Portland

    In my surveys over the years, this question has received more votes than any other category. No so for 2015's Best Thai Restaurant in Portland. Perhaps Portlanders are getting more sophisticated, and experiencing other cuisines as more diverse restaurants open. I am glad interests seem to be evening out.In the 2011 poll, Pok Pok took an impressive 43% of the vote, but in … [Read more...] about Reader Survey 2015: Best Thai Restaurant in Portland
