Just had a porchetta sandwich today! it really was delicious. my favorite part was the last two bites, where the bread had soaked up all the juice in the bottom and was soppy and also still lightly toasty – ahhh so satisfying and warm for the start of fall.

I’m visiting PDX from Boston — The coconut pork w/ Papaya from People’s Pig may very well have been the best sandwich I’ve ever had in my life. It may sound intimidating or even strange — but take the leap of faith; this is one hell of a lunch.

While it’s a bit spendy for a food cart and not one I’d go to every day, I have to say the sandwiches are amazingly good at this place. He also does handmade sodas that are super tasty.

Recommended if you want to try something a little different…

Best sandwich in Portland. Hands down. Bunk, People’s Sandwich… great, but… The Porchetta (especially greens + lemon version) is easily the best sandwich I’ve had in town… maybe anywhere.

Had a chance to get there a couple of times in the last month. Went alone and last time with my wife. We both agree that you have to put in the top ten list of sandwiches that we’ve ever had. I’ve only tried the porchetta because it’s so damn tasty. For 8 bucks considering the sandwich, I thought it was a good deal.

Had the Meatball sand today. Really luscious. The meatballs were tender and very nicely seasoned. Sauce is rich and tangy. The bread was a great choice. Good structure but yielding and with a healthy dose of mozz melted on. I’ll be back….

Tried ‘The People’s Pig’ today and really enjoyed the Porchetta – I was a bit taken aback by the $8 dollars for a sandwich at a cart, so unfortunately I won’t be a regular. (Not when I can get a sit down lunch at Kell’s for 7 bucks) But, that said, it was one of the best pork sandwiches I ‘ve had in a long time.

Truly the best sandwich I have ever had in my life, and I get around. My friend, a person with a tiny appetite, had already eaten at another cart by the time we stopped here. I gave her a taste of my sandwich (arugula and peppers) and her face absolutely lit up and her eyes squeezed tight. I was going to save mine until I got home as I don’t eat standing up very successfully but after her reaction I couldn’t wait. The blend of flavors and textures is just fantastic and the bread is perfect because it doesn’t have a hard crust to conflict with the soft insides. This sandwich is so easy to eat.

While I was waiting about nine people came by to order. It was pretty equal between the arugula and the cabbage and apple. Sopressata was out for the day. Cliff says he is working on a meatball sandwich and I can only imagine what heights that one will hit.

Please visit him as soon as you can. This sandwich is too good to miss out on.
