In this week's Eater Portland roundup, the team shared memorable dishes. Erin DeJesus highlighted eggs cooked with figs at Beaverton's Family Cafe, an unexpected and delightful breakfast experience. The dish, paired with unique hot sauce and pita, added cheer to a gloomy day. Jaya Saxena praised the Hot Dog Hamburger from Sure Shot food truck, blending a double smash patty with a fried hot dog and intriguing toppings, exemplifying Portland's inventive approach to burgers. Both meals reflect the community's diversity and creativity in culinary offerings.
The recent meal I can't stop thinking about was also maybe my simplest. On a clouded weekend morning (emotionally, if not literally), I stopped into Beaverton's Family Cafe for breakfast.
I ordered something I've never seen before - eggs cooked with figs - and the sweet round of omelet that emerged was delightfully unexpected.
The Hot Dog Hamburger could easily be perceived as going a little far with the smashburger experimentation trend, but is a legitimately delicious meal.
Not sure where you can go wrong, but if following a trend makes me wrong, maybe I do.
