“Frugal” Portland featured in The New York Times!

frugal-portlandNew York Times writer, Matt Gross, wrote a fabulous article after his recent trip to Portand.   The article is a mini-travel guide that highlights plenty of non-touristy,  hip and AFFORDABLE places to eat, shop and stay.  All the while using Portland’s stellar public transportation system!  Here are a few snippets:

“Portland is overflowing with great, affordable restaurants. In dozens of meals, I don’t think I was ever truly disappointed with a single bite, nor did I ever leave hungry, nor did my friends and I ever spend more than $25 a person.”

“A dedication to the things that really matter: hearty food and drink, cultural pursuits both high and low, days in the outdoors and evenings out with friends. It’s the good life, and in Portland it still comes cheap.”
