Rock the Vote: Choose Portland's Empire Builder of the Year

Voting for the first-ever Eater Awards is wrapping up today, but not before we sneak a couple wild card categories your way. The past few days, you've been casting Internet ballots for Portland's Restaurant of the Year, "So Hot Right Now" Restaurant, Chef of the Year, and Bartender of the Year — now, we're looking to crown a king of an empire.

A winner will be chosen from amongst the most popular three choices. Polls are open now until Friday at 5pm; voting irregularities will be strictly policed.
