It's basically an entire day wandering around the grounds to different small bars and cigar shops with a golf course! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/favorite-restaurants-in-portland-oregon#post-2177049 Wed, 13 May 2015 13:35:01 +0000 StbHisMrs 2177049@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I have to second Podnah's Pit, yum!!!<br /> Also great are Tasty n Sons<br /> Ox<br /> Salt &amp; Straw (best ice cream ever!)<br /> Dig a Pony is a cool bar with lots of variety</p> <p>One of our favorites is slipping my mind right now, I'll have to come back to this! </p> <p>Make sure they try out some food carts :wink: </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/favorite-restaurants-in-portland-oregon#post-2177009 Wed, 13 May 2015 13:11:16 +0000 catlady 2177009@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We were there a couple years ago and I still think of the food sometimes. We didn't eat anywhere fancy but my favorites were Lardo (sandwiches), Grassa (fresh pasta), and the Gaufre Gourmet which is a food truck which has ridiculously yummy waffles. I was pregnant when I was there and it was like food heaven! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/favorite-restaurants-in-portland-oregon#post-2177001 Wed, 13 May 2015 13:07:53 +0000 Rainbow Sprinkles 2177001@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@autumnlove: Darn, I was gonna say, that's totally close enough for a meet-up! ;) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/favorite-restaurants-in-portland-oregon#post-2176998 Wed, 13 May 2015 13:06:53 +0000 autumnlove 2176998@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Rainbow Sprinkles: no, DH!!!! :-( I wish! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/favorite-restaurants-in-portland-oregon#post-2176992 Wed, 13 May 2015 13:01:29 +0000 Rainbow Sprinkles 2176992@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@autumnlove: Wait, are you going to PDX soon? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/favorite-restaurants-in-portland-oregon#post-2176939 Wed, 13 May 2015 12:35:41 +0000 youboots 2176939@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@autumnlove: Little Bird is great. If you want to do something unusual check out Beast. I love the rooftop bar at the Nines-such amazing views. And I've heard the food is good at Departure is good too. </p> <p>For fast unique eats check out Brunchbox. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/favorite-restaurants-in-portland-oregon#post-2176913 Wed, 13 May 2015 12:22:26 +0000 autumnlove 2176913@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@sarac: thanks! It is for my husband and his friends...I think one of them made a reservation for Little Bird Bistro for French food but they are winging it for the rest of their trip.</p> <p>I don't remember exactly where they are staying...I want to say the SW area?</p> <p>Mmmm donuts! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/favorite-restaurants-in-portland-oregon#post-2176909 Wed, 13 May 2015 12:20:53 +0000 GoGoSnoGirl 2176909@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Don't know if you are up to going outside Portland a little, but I loved the McMenamin's Edgefield "resort". I used quotes because it is a large site with hotel, restaurants, pubs, but you could just go there to eat. They also have other McMenamins locations within Portland that are also interesting, like Kennedy School. They often renovate old historic buildings for their locations. Pretty cool vibe, good beer &amp; interesting. Check it out! :-) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/favorite-restaurants-in-portland-oregon#post-2176896 Wed, 13 May 2015 12:14:39 +0000 sarac 2176896@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Ok! I have one million, and I'd be happy to make neighborhood specific suggestions too. But Podnah's for bbq, absolutely. The Hawthorne carts are kind of fading, but still have much of their original silly hipster glory. Any Blue Star location is awesome for crazy fancy donuts, and if you need a burger fast, Little Big Burger fantastic. Be sure to try their truffle fries. Lardo is also awesome for various meat based foods.</p> <p>Oh, I forgot one of my favorite places - Helser's. Try it on a weekday when you won't have to wait as long. And Pine State! I could go on and on. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/favorite-restaurants-in-portland-oregon#post-2176879 Wed, 13 May 2015 12:06:13 +0000 autumnlove 2176879@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Any favorites?! :-) </p>
