The small plates food experience is nothing new in Portland. You’ve got tapas at Sur Lie, small plates at Lolita, and mezze style eating at Evo, as well as many others. Mezze style is interesting, because it’s more of a Middle Eastern concept. At Evo, sharing is encouraged, especially when you’re in a large group. […]

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, […]

It was disappointing when I found out that Barbecue isn’t a top priority in Portland, but not anymore! […]

Though I love Thai food, it’s taken me a few months to visit the Thai place just 3 blocks away from my apartment. I had 3 different people recommend Boda to me, and now I can tell you why! It is great, and has some awesome late night food offerings, perfect for the college student […]
