Remember that Seattle restaurant, 5 Spot, that's paying "tribute" to Portland with a PDX-themed menu this quarter? WWeek sends a Seattle correspondent to sample the best of what Seattle-Does-Portland has to offer, and it seems that the famous "flannel fries" and "strip steak" (get it?) don't quite live up to the bemused hype: "Judging by admittedly limited experience with 5 Spot's menu, and taking a huge and irresponsible leap into completely unjustified extrapolatory madness, I can tell you with no further ado that Seattle hates Portland."
