Hanukkah begins this weekend, rolling from one holiday straight into the next — which means even more cooking and feasting, all within a single week. It can be tricky to find latkes and sufganiyot (jelly doughnuts) around Portland, with its limited number of Jewish delis and markets, but a few Portland-area restaurants, markets, and delis have begun stocking up for the holiday. Those seeking full brisket dinners, a few orders of latkes, or a single jelly doughnut can find them all across town using this map, as well as a few dine-in options for brunch or dinner. Eater maps are not ranked; they’re organized geographically.
