Lardo

I first heard about Lardo when they were featured in an article in the New York Times titled "A Culture Moves East in Portland Oregon". I was very impressed that a restaurant in Portland as new as this could get a shout-out in the New York Times. It's on Hawthorne Blvd., which I live off of, and I pass it every day I go to school, so I was bound to eat there sooner or later. Finally I did and it was amazing. I got the griddled mortadella and it was delicous! It was hot, with provolone, marinated peppers, whole grain mustard, and a lot of meat! I had an order of "dirty fries" with it, which really topped it off. "Dirty fries" were regular french fries with pork scraps and peppers and herbs. Overall it was very very delicious and I will definitely be going back!
