You will find Ken’s Artisan Pizza, this 16-year-old woodfired pizzeria in southeast Portland. I mean, trailing behind a pizzeria in Naples, Italy, that's quite impressive if you ask me - considering they are the birthplace of most likely the world's most favorite dish.
First opening their doors in 2006, their wood-fired 12 inch pizzas are topped with seasonal ingredients, such as braised oxtail and fennel, and served with a beautifully blistered crust.
And if somehow you still have room after some delicious pizza, you might want to try this scrumptious looking desert. This blondie is topped with ice cream and drizzled with mouthwatering chocolate ganache. I think I could definitely squeeze this in. What do you think?
