Going to Portland, Oregon for the first time in two weeks! I'm excited for the wedding, the restaurants, the produce and all the microbreweries. I've already booked Le Pigeon - a restaurant I've been trying to get to the last 2 years. Thanks everyone for the recommendations, I've got a list of options and I figure I'd share it with everyone. I am planning on buying a ton of mushrooms at a farmer's market as well, so I can bring a ton back with me. They seem SO much cheaper and better in the Pacific NW. Whoever wants in on a big mushroom share buy, maybe you can twitter me to work something out...My List:
Brunch/Lunch:
Bijou Cafe
Bunk Sandwiches
Screen Door
Park Kitchen
Acropolis (strip club breakfast, $8 steak and eggs, hell yeah!)
Utopia
Wong's King for dim sum
Happy Hour/Cocktails Late:
Teardrop
Ten-01
Clyde Common
Beaker Flask
Dinner:
Beast
Le Pigeon
Pok Pok
Sel Gris
Umm, did no one say Voo Doo Doughnuts? A must! A Portland classic!
ReplyDeleteAnd Simpatica Dining Hall is awesome for brunch too. Have fun!
Good to see you'll be in my neck of the woods. Though I would suggest Carlyle as a must stop to eat. And take in some of the foodcart scene in Portland some of the best grub in the City of Roses isn't in a restuaruant.
ReplyDeleteYou know according to the Oregon Brewers Guild, there is an estimated 159 microbreweries in Oregon
