                <description><![CDATA[Another 'Old Town' favourite; Dan and Louis' is where to go when you want to try some local seafood in Portland. <br><br>Do not be fooled by the name - D&amp;L's is a family-friendly restaurant with a diverse menu that features some of the freshest local ingredients.  The clam chowder is classic and the Cioppino is a particular favourite, but if you are an oyster afficianado, you cannot miss out on the dozen varieties of oysters offered here.  <br><br>The decor is classic Pacific Northwest fish house: every inch of wall space is covered with marine-related memorabilia, much of it collected over the restaurant's 100 year history.   <br><br>For adults, there is a separate bar in back and make sure you ask about 'the hole' - a glass-covered look into almost bottomless pit - right below the bar.]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[Southeast 82nd Avenue can be a pain to navigate (many stop lights, insane traffic) but it is worth the trouble for the Asian restaurants, from Chinese to Vietnamese, that populate the strip. However, one of my favorite Asian spots is Xuyen Bakery, where you can grab a heavenly Vietnamese sandwich for two bucks and a scrumptious apple turnover for a buck.]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ast Burnside is home to my favorite southern style restaurant, The Screen Door. I always get the NC style pulled pork with some greens and hushpuppies, but everything else is excellent.  They also feature local organic salads.]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[For seafood, I recommend Jake's Famous Crawfish on SW Stark.  Oyster lovers will enjoy the Kumamoto Oysters fresh from Netarts Bay.  The crawfish boil features creatures caught in Lake Billy Chinook, south of Portland on the Warm Springs Reservation.  Anything with Dungeness crab is going to be tasty and the fresh fish is mouthwatering. The prices are moderate here.]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[This is a really great neighbourhood pizza place with the best dough and sauce in Portland.  They only make a certain amount of dough every night and when it's gone they turn people away.  These guys are serious about pizza - not only do they not deliver, they don't even allow you to call in and take out.  Only warning, it can sometimes take up to an hour to get in... but, once you try this amazing pie, you forget all about the wait.]]></description>
