AMERICA’S BEST EATS

by

America has spoke up! From East to West Coasts, the cities with the best food may surprise you.
To be a great food city, it helps to have a large body of water nearby, a classic dish or three, and a population with a fondness for drink.
 Measured by the Washington Post against a set of standards – for creativity, community and tradition, among other criteria – it’s here,  The Top 10 list of America’s Best Food Cities.
Ranking at the top, the Pacific Coast hosts a surplus of cities for dinning with specialty.  Claiming the top three spots, San Diego and Los Angeles follow Portland as America’s best food city.

Surprising? While normally the assumption of New York or Chicago would quickly come to mind, the Pacific Coast region is making a rise and a name for its’ grub.

Portland’s food scene does not disappoint, while continually keeping things a little more green with a strong reputation for being a republic of tree huggers with a surplus of dishes featuring local grown produce.  As one of the best places to enjoy everything from specified menus created by world renowned chefs to longstanding home style establishments, your pallet won’t go dull – and it’s no wonder Portland has been ranked America’s best food city.
What’s this mean for restaurant businesses and candidates looking for a career in the industry?
 The time is here to rise beyond the expectation of the nations best plates and explore future possibilities for new dining experiences.
Whether you’re on the horizon of expansion and need top chefs, restaurant mangers or are looking to expand your career to another level, we can help.
After 30 years of restaurant management hiring, we have the passion, the know-how and the network to bring you the best, fast.
