I think this was the best I had in Portland.  I found this mobile restaurant on yelp.com.  It sound interesting – a savory breakfast crepe popular in Beijing.  It looked delicious and I finally discovered the booth right after I had lunch on Saturday and there was a long line.  I returned out Sunday to find out they were closed and knew I wouldn’t be back in time to have one before they closed on Monday.  I made it a point to get up early and try it out before leaving Portland.  I am glad I did.

How did I miss this on my trip to China?  I was discovering this in Portland?  There is no doubt in my mind that if I go back, I am going to go back.

What is it?  In Beijing, it is a breakfast dish called Jiang Bing – a savory crepe with an egg cooked on  it with chili oil, plum sauce (hoisin), green onions and cilantro.  A cracker is placed on it and it is rolled up.  Sausage, an extra egg and cracker could be added as well.  I loved every bite!
