15 FOODS THE PACIFIC NORTHWEST DOES BETTER - DELISH

  • Salmon. More From Delish. There is no better salmon than the fillets you find in the PNW. Period. You can eat it hot smoked, cold smoked, salt cured, grilled, and fresh — there are no limits to the superiority of Pacific Ocean salmon.
  • Oysters. Pacific Coast oysters might be smaller than their Gulf Coast cousins but they are sweet, briny, and all together irresistible. Go to the West Coast (specifically the Olympia Farmer's Market) and eat oysters until you get a belly ache.
  • Geoducks. These super weird, prehistoric clams are worth traveling for. Known for their savory flavor, crunchy texture and aphrodisiac (ahem) qualities, geoducks have have earned such a name for themselves that they are even the mascot of my alma mater (Evergreen State College).
  • Tillamook Cheddar. Tillamook, an Oregon institution, makes THE best cheddar cheese. Whether you want snacking cheese, grilled cheese, or cheese souffle this brand is a must.
  • Beer. We all know that the PNW — hipster paradise Portland, Ore. especially — is known for craft beer. Beer is in our blood and no other part of the U.S.
  • Tim's Cascade Chips. These guys were making kettle cooked chips before it was cool and their jalapeño flavor remains a trendsetter to this day. Though they aren't as easy to find when you head east, these chips are always worth seeking out.
  • Food Carts. Portland, Ore. might be known for spearheading the food cart craze — and I don't want to take it away from them — but food carts are popping up all over the PNW.
  • Thai Food. New York might think they have their Thai food game under control, but the West Coast boasts a crazy number of Thai eateries. Growing up, I had a specific dish I would order at each restaurant and that was just in a one-block main drag in my hometown.
  • Garlic Fries. Fans come from far and wide to watch a game at Seattle's Safeco Field, but a big part of the attraction is the garlic fries. If you can survive the line that can often take a whole inning to get through, you'll be rewarded with fries that are super garlicky, served in a cardboard cup holder and garnished with two apple slices (to help get ride of the pungent after taste).


22 FOODS YOU NEED TO TRY IN THE PACIFIC NORTHWEST

  • Salmon candy. Salmon is as much a part of the Pacific Northwest as the people who live in the region. An indigenous tribe's first food, Pacific salmon, has been a staple of the Northwest since well before our country's founding (via Travel Oregon).
  • Dungeness crab. Rich, sweet, and meaty, Dungeness crab is a welcome treat for any seafood lover's table and a native crustacean of the Pacific Northwest.
  • Hazelnuts. The hazelnut may be the miracle nut. According to the Oregon Hazelnut Industry, it is said to cure a common cold and chronic cough. It is also one of five sacred nourishments God bestowed on humans.
  • Oregon berries. Some states have wildflowers that grow unabandoned in fields and along highways; Oregon has berries. The Oregon Raspberry & Blackberry Commission shares that wild berries thrive in the nutrient-rich soils of Oregon's Willamette Valley, an area with cool nights, warm days, and water sourced from melted snow off the Cascade Mountains.
  • Tillamook Marionberry Pie Ice Cream. As beloved as the native blackberries are in the Pacific Northwest, they are nothing compared to the marionberry.
  • Rogue River blue cheese. Pungently aromatic, mold-filled blue cheese is one of the most sumptuous delicacies produced in the world. Blue cheese has a beautiful salty, sharp, robust taste we crave.
  • Cougar Gold cheddar cheese. Preserved and canned foods are essential items in household pantries. Fruits and vegetables, meats, soups, and sauces line the aisle of grocery stores across America.
  • Beecher's World's Best Mac and Cheese. The region that makes so much cheese should produce the "World's Best" mac and cheese. In 2003 lifelong cheese lover Kurt Beecher Dammeier opened Beecher's Handmade Cheese in Seattle's Pike Place Market.
  • Voodoo Doughnut Bacon Maple Bar. In 2003 two friends opened the first location of Voodoo Doughnut in Old Town Portland, transforming the breakfast treat into a whimsical institution within the city.
  • Lovely's Fifty Fifty seasonal pizza. Just when we thought Voodoo Doughnuts was turning the world of fried dough on its head, Chef Sarah Minnick changed how Porlandians perceived pizza by opening Lovely's Fifty Fifty in 2010.
