Lucky?s Bar and Grill--Review 19
We're always looking for good excuses to go out for drinks, and recently we came up with the idea that--since the weather won't stay dry for long--we should try to enjoy some patio time while we can.&...

Fresh from vacation that involved more drinking at home than out, your fearless reviewers Laida and Ethan trucked out with Nick, Leah, Shaun, and Josh to The Hutch on Holgate (4515 SE 41st A...
did we steal someones idea??
A nasty little pube of a man recently accused us of having stolen the idea of another site that reviews bars in Portland.  He was borderline retarded, and even dictionary.com could not guess...

Oscar Donut

Valentine_1 (9K) I've been by Sesame Donut but have yet to stop in. It's on my to-do list. Sesame Donuts gets an awesome write up here

UPDATE Spent Sunday with a bag of Sesame Donuts and the Oscars. Pure Heaven. Fresh donuts are sublime. These put chain and grocery store donuts to shame. Shame!! Even the Sesame Donut cake donuts were light and tasty.

St. Honore to open in Lake Oswego

April 2007

St. Honore

Barbur World Foods Deli now open!

NOW WITH FRESH BAKED PITA

I stopped in a few days ago for houmus and veggie kibbeh! They have a full selection of cold salads and a hot case with kabob, lamb, etc. Great vegetarian selection and very reasonable prices.

BARBUR WORLD FOODS Their grocery selection is amazing - lavash, black currant syrup, olives, kefir cheese, Beer and Wine, etc. Great prices! Right on the corner of Barbur and Capitol Highway. Barbur World Foods

Unsung Lunch Heroes: Sheridan Fruit Market

Writing about Barbur Foods reminded me of Sheridan Fruit Company on SE MLK and Stark. They have a varied and wonderful lunch time deli with outdoor grilled veggie burgers, salads, casseroles, pastries and desserts. Don't think of them as just fruit baskets! Also check out the amazing bulk foods area, including bulk Jujy Fruits. yum!

Why I lurve PDX reason #3901: Veganopolis

Speaking of unusual coffee drinks

Veganopolis now offers a Horchata Latte with house-made horchata. I love horchata, and I love espresso. Unfortunately, the two did not mix well. I should have ordered them separately. On the flip side, I've had their soy lattes which are awesome. On the same visit I grabbed a faux tuna salad sandwich - how DO they do it? vegan magic! It was the best part of tuna salad without the tuna-smell ickiness.

Even if vegan food give you the willies, do check this place out. You'll be amazed. Downtown PDX on 4th between Washington and Alder - Veganopolis



Current Portland Restaurants

Savoy Tavern

portland cheese curd (3K)Well I can't find a web site for them, so here's the Citysearch link for the Savoy Tavern and Bistro. 2 words: Cheese Curds. Go and have some deep fried beer battered cheese curds.
I've actually eaten here twice and had great food each time. Fab mac-n-cheese, and a house-made veggie burger. Prices are a little spendy for my taste - definitely not super-cheap, but reasonable.

Cali-Sandwiches

yummy sandwichFound the 'new' Cali-Sandwiches at 66th and NE Glisan last Saturday. I know there is one somewhere off Sandy but I could never find it. French/Vietnamese sandwiches (bahn-mi) SUPER CHEAP $2.75 - $2.50 AND they have a vegetarian offering - sweet tofu ($2.50)! The bread is excellent.

Also had the avocado smoothie. Do like avocado? you will LOVE the $2.00 avocado smoothie. Coffee and strawberry are also offered. I will try Coffee next.

AND THAT'S NOT ALL: they have a sandwich 'punchcard' - buy 9 sandwiches, get one free! Also in-house - buy 6 at a time, get one free. Or maybe buy 5, get the 6th free.
