À propos de la quatrième de couverture

We can't get enough of Portland: charming gardens, compelling museums, and coffee shops galore. But what's beyond the city's headline attractions? Literary saloons staging late-night burlesque performances, family-run food carts plating up incredible soul food, hardcore gaming houses hosting weekly D&D tournaments - we could go on. There's much more to Portland than the Pittock Mansion and Portland Art Museum, and who better to show you around than the locals?

This gorgeous insider's guide is packed with recommendations from Portlanders in the know, helping you to discover all their favourite hangouts and hidden haunts. Of course, with a city as kooky as Portland we could fill the pages of this book tenfold. Rather, Portland Like a Local offers a snapshot of local life, and it's yours for the taking.

Whether you're a Portlander looking to uncover your city's secrets or a traveller seeking an authentic experience beyond the tourist track, this stylish guide helps you to experience the real side of Portland.
