Portland Makes NYT List of 31 Summer Stops

by pearlgirl

The New York Times has named 31 interesting places to visit this summer. Portland made the list as a foodie haven: "As far as foodie havens go, Portland has been better known for its vegan cafes and eco-hippie cooperatives than for restaurants with gastronomic ambitions. But an emerging locavore movement has changed that. Drawn by the city’s low rents and artsy vibe, young chefs are breaking the culinary mold and tapping into the Northwestern bounty of local fisheries, small meat purveyors and artisanal farms. Sample the heat at places like Clyde Common (Southwest 10th and Stark; 503-228-3333; www.clydecommon.com ), which serves novel dishes like crispy pork belly with blood orange marmalade."

Here's Something My Hips Didn't Need to Know

by pearlgirl

OMG. Fire On the Mountain is evil . Tonight, from 5-10pm they are selling their devil-icious wings for only 25 cents each. This is good for dine in only, so don't get any bright ideas... And for those folks who were looking forward to the wing-eating technique seminar... "Sara will not be hosting her wing-eating technique seminar tonight as previously advertised. She burned her wing eating finger while attempting to fry a piece of beef jerky and will be out of commission for a couple weeks. Please visit www.cluckbucket.com for all sorts of wing related information including dozens of wing eating techniques and wing restaurant reviews." Fire On the Mountain 4225 N. Interstate Portland, OR 97217
or 1708 E. Burnside Portland, OR 97214
