My lunch posse and fellow food critics, Jesse and Ryan (pictured) have been raving about the meatball sandwich at Hotlips Pizza for a couple of weeks now. They got in on the trail run and I guess it went so well Hotlips has made it a permanent feature on the menu. I have to agree with them that this is the best meatball sandwich I have tasted in Portland and possibly ever. The bread is perfect: soft and tasty but still manages to hold together with all that amazing sauce. The meatballs are meat and pork and they have the perfect amount of spice. The best news of all, the sandwich is big enough for a meal for only $6.
Hotlips is my favorite pizza place in Portland. They are a family-owned business that began making pizzas in 1984. In 2005 they added their own fresh fruit sodas. They now have five pizzerias in Portland. They are dedicated to sustainability and reducing their impact on the environment - you can read about how they are trying to reduce their food miles on their website - and their Pearl District location is in the very cool Eco Trust building.
