Portland, Oregon

Let me start off by saying that Portland is a wonderful town. You've got your joggers and your bikers. Your Organic Farmers and your Artist. There's always something going on; a show or a performance, a street fair or a protest. And Portland.... I admire your laid back attitude; something east coasters definitely do not have. But I am not here to comment on the city's activities or it's attitude on walking to work. I am here to tell you about it's restaurants.
They have every kind of ethnicity that you could ever crave. From Thai to Egyptian, Ethiopian to Indian, Vegan to Organic Fast Food Burger Joints. Portland goes all out with their types of restaurants and that's about all they go all out on.....
Generally all the restaurants are going to cost a pretty penny. I have been told that this is because everybody uses organic and local, which is great and I fully support local farmers. But it can tend to get very expensive. Service, over all, is probably the worst I have ever experienced but if you can stand to wait an hour for your dessert, the food is generally brilliant. Thinking positive....Portland is big for it's micro breweries. Everywhere you go they sell beer. From the corner breakfast bar to the local coffee shop. It's a nice little twist with your breakfast burrito......
