The Original Hotcake and Steakhouse, located on Southeast Powell Boulevard in Portland is a landmark greasy spoon that has been around for decades. They’ve been serving patrons carbolicious dishes 24-7 for some 50 odd years. It’s cool to see these guys are still dishing it out after all this time.

[rating:5]

They’re located in the “crotch” [their words, not mine] of Portland aka Old Town. After watching Anthony Bourdain (we luv you Tony!) do a segment on the Pacific Northwest, scarfing down a bacon-maple bar — we knew we had to try one for ourselves.
