Yes, the two greatest eaters of all time, the sultans of swine, the idiots who drive an hour and a half to go to some restaurant that is just a rumor on the lips of their fellow foodies, the constantly overfed, and completely unsatiated are presenting you with a blog. A blog which we will begin with showing you a pic of us eating Popeye's. Yes, Popeye's. Oh so sad. You want to see us eating oyster ceviche, drinking fine Portland beers, chowing at Korean BBQs, sipping marvelous cappuccinos. Tough shit.
We were busy today purchasing 25 pounds of pork and an extra fridge to put it in. More importantly we were nursing hangovers on no sleep. We are assuming you can forgive us our for our very first food pics being Popeye's. We GUARANTEE this will get better. And moreover Popeye's is amazing hangover food. And we can pick it up in five minutes. And while driving I can reach blindly behind my seat, cop a leg from the box and shove it in my face.
So we actually have eaten some non-fast food products in the recent past, and will be eating our way through this town.
Upon receiving 6 sandwiches, 3 sides, and 2 mexi-cokes at Bunk, we were told that we hold the record for most food ordered by two people. They hooked us up with two free tarts because clearly we still looked hungry. Super nice guys over there, and great food to boot. One of my favorite restaurants in town. The pulled pork was just crazy, hints of BBQ, but not actually Cue. Roast Beef was a kick in the pants, hell everything was stunning. I have been a few times in the recent past and felt the quality was going downhill a bit, but this just reaffirmed how damn good this place is. Yeah Yeah Yeah a sandwich is a sandwich. I think that is the opinion of most people that live in a bad sandwich town(my DC peeps will empathize). Bunk exeeded my expectaions even with one of the cooks putting them together like I spell. Each sandwich had a specific bread and was warmed/toasted/sauced to perfection. We left there knowing that we had to make as good or better.Our goal with this blog is to show you what we are doing to open up our food cart. We plan on posting what we are cooking, where we are eating, and general info about cart progress. The cart is being constructed right now by the nice fellows at Northwest Mobile Kitchens, it should be completed by early April, and we are hoping to be open later on in the month. We are shooting for 5 really bad ass sandwiches the likes of which Portland has never seen. We are going to post details on various recipes we are hashing out, successes and failures both.
