My first trip to Portland was in July. It’s such a beautiful city with amazing food. The view of Mt.Hood alone is worth it.
It was a short trip and with Portland ranking either first, second or third (depending on whom you ask) as having the most restaurants and bars per capita, I was only able to get to a few places. Here are the highlights:
Tasty coffee at Stumptown. Worth the wait in line.
Breakfast at Besaws in the Alphabet District which feels like a cross between a diner and cafe. Hearty and interesting food at a good price.
Touring the city via the “Hop-on hop-off trolly.”
I’ve never been to Bite of Oregon but if money were no object I’d hop on a plane and go this weekend. Hopefully there will be some Chicagoans able to go. They will not be disappointed.
