They probably shouldn’t but its so freaking good, Por Que No?!

*crickets chirping*

Every major news publication and food blog in Portland has written about this fabulous taco shop, so I won’t get into too much detail here. But the food is consistently good and fresh. I crave the pescado tacos. I never thought it would be possible to sit outside on a cold spring day in Portland and feel like you were eating out of a beach front shack in Mexico, but that is what happens at Por Que No. Let a margarita warm you up, order the homemade chips and guac, finish it up with some tacos, and it’s the recession-proof trip to Mexico you’ve always wanted.

We were there this past Thursday taking a guest from out of town and I snagged a few shots of their sangria and tacos. The two on the end are the Pescado (fish) tacos and the middle was a special – sweet and spicy chipotle chicken with fresh citrus. I hope they put this one on the menu permanently.
