207 foodie

It’s a Wednesday morning. You walk to work, get out of your car and think how much you dread going into the office today. The week is halfway over, and all you wanted to do when you got up was hit the snooze button and go back to bed. But then you remember. The Farmer’s […]

If you love Portland, then you know that new restaurants are part of this city’s amazing charm. And if you’ve been to Portland recently, then you’ll also know about Slab. What’s there to know? My personal opinion is this is definitely one of my new favorite restaurants in the area. Here’s why!

Last time, it was a close call between Duckfat […]

It’s almost Mother’s Day! Before you panic, remember that we live in Portland, the city with more choices than you know what to do with. If my mother were in town (sadly she’s in Chicago) these are the places I would take her! 1. Petite Jacqeline: My mom isn’t always the easiest person to please, […]

This weekend was the first annual Street Eats and Beats food truck festival. Let me say, I came hungry and I left anything but that! Here’s just a small taste of what was there.

It’s a weird way to start, I know. But have you ever had a duck burger? I’m not talking about a burger topped with duck, fried in duck fat, or in honor of the Mighty Ducks. Though that last one would be pretty cool! No, I’m talking about a burger patty made exclusively out of […]

I know that spring has only just sprung (such a corny joke, I know) but what better time to do a roundup of my favorite restaurants in the 207 than right now? Some of these may come as a surprise, but there’s no doubt that these are the places that I keep coming back to, […]
