The Portland Mercury's Nacho Week
Not only are nachos the Platonic ideal of bar food, they also present a wonderful canvas for creativity: Crunchy tortilla chips (or tots or what have you) provide a base for whatever toppings your heart desires. The Portland Mercury’s annual Nacho Week demonstrates the dizzying versatility of the beloved Tex-Mex dish with exclusive specials created by chefs all over Portland for a mere $10 each. Plot your itinerary, round up some friends, and go share some full-sized plates of hearty nachos smothered in melty cheese until you fist-fight over the last bite.
