Can you help a professional basketball player find some good grub off the court? Portland Trail Blazers player Josh Hart tweeted this week, “Best restaurants in PDX? Got to try some new spots.”

Dozens of people chimed in with suggestions, including Lechon, Bamboo Sushi, Piazza Italia, Hat Yai, Farmhouse Kitchen Thai Cuisine, Screen Door, Akadi, Quaintrelle + Eem.

Do you have a favorite spot to put on Hart’s radar? Pass him the ball on Twitter. 🏀
