Today on City Cast Portland, we’re continuing our neighborhood guide series where we talk with Portlanders about the good, bad, and ugly of where they live. This time we’re talking about Montavilla with Bryan M. Vance, City Cast’s director of digital strategy. He’s lived in Montavilla for about three years, and he’s not only sharing his neighborhood's secret borders; he’s also prepared some fighting words for anyone who thinks their farmers market can compete with Montavilla’s. Discussed in Today’s Episode:

Flying Pie Pizzeria

Yaowarat

The House of Bánh Mì

Bui’s Natural Tofu

Blank Slate
