I have only taken advantage of the Thai, Mexican, and the soul food. I'd like to branch out but some of these places are super authentic that I am nervous! I've heard we have a big Bangladeshi population, too. I have to research what's the best dishes to order.

Mexican, Indian, Korean, Chinese, sushi/Japanese, Mongolian, and Greek, off the top of my head. Theyre not "walking" distance, but all less than 10 minutes by car.

One great thing about living in Portland Oregon proper is its a foodie town and good food is everywhere! There's even a Cambodian restaurant on our block which I am dying to try. Lots of Thai, Korean, Indian, Italian, Japanese, Mexican, Chinese, Lithuanian. It's really incredible. We even finally found good pizza and bagels which were a must because after living over a decade in New York City I was spoiled! Oh and there are also several really good places to have Ethiopian food which I LOVE!!! It's so yummy! I'm having a hard time thinking of a type of food we dont have here.

But our neighborhood actually also has a lot of Thai, Greek, Mexican, and more ethnic foods all on the same street. swurlygurl on "Does your neighborhood have good ethnic food?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/does-your-neighborhood-have-good-ethnic-food#post-1625131 Fri, 09 May 2014 15:32:24 +0000 swurlygurl 1625131@https://boards.hellobee.com/ Hmmm... there's a Papa John's down the street... :meh: sheskrafty on "Does your neighborhood have good ethnic food?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/does-your-neighborhood-have-good-ethnic-food#post-1625095 Fri, 09 May 2014 15:09:05 +0000 sheskrafty 1625095@https://boards.hellobee.com/ Unfortunately, no. My neighborhood has a million pizza and hoagie shops which is very boring. snowjewelz on "Does your neighborhood have good ethnic food?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/does-your-neighborhood-have-good-ethnic-food#post-1625084 Fri, 09 May 2014 15:04:56 +0000 snowjewelz 1625084@https://boards.hellobee.com/ Only one - Indian & middle-eastern! The town next to us has a tooon of amazing restaurants. But that's about it :bummed: But we can get good ethnic food within a 30-40 min drive. mrs. tictactoe on "Does your neighborhood have good ethnic food?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/does-your-neighborhood-have-good-ethnic-food#post-1625083 Fri, 09 May 2014 15:04:38 +0000 mrs. tictactoe 1625083@https://boards.hellobee.com/ Nope. There's a good mexican place, but that's it. No good asian food at all nearby. Oh wait, there's good sushi. Forgot. mrbee on "Does your neighborhood have good ethnic food?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/does-your-neighborhood-have-good-ethnic-food#post-1625076 Fri, 09 May 2014 15:03:23 +0000 mrbee 1625076@https://boards.hellobee.com/ Our neighborhood has decent food nearby, but nothing great. I think the biggest failing is the lack of good ethnic food... there's tons of pizza and diners, but not a lot of great Thai or Korean food. Pretty much any ethnic cuisine you'd want is not really available. Does your neighborhood have good ethnic food?
