Michael's Foodie Suggestions
Food and Coffee Scene
These local recommendations are tried and true for my "foodie" taste buds. The food choices in greater Portland are vast. Hopefully, this Guidebook can give you a direction for finding the foods and beverages that will hit the spot for you and your party.
Coffee places are so abundant that I have just hit the tip of the iceberg with a few of my local favorites.
Located 5 minutes away in Multnomah Village, a solid choice for breakfast, lunch or dinner. Fun Portlandish decor.

There are seversl locations around town. To me, Pizzicato, has the best gourmet pizza in Portland. Genoves and Wild Mushroom are a couple family favs. Their Caesar salad dressing is the best, if you love garlic. We get extra to dip pizza crust in. So good.

Full disclosure: This is a place I have never eaten at, but is very close to our home. A friend recently alerted me that it is an excellent brew pub, with a broad and interesting menu.
I must say, after reading over the food array offered here, I will anxiously look for an opportunity to try out this neighborhood pub-gem, hiding in plain sight!
Weeks later: Now that I have tried out this gastro-pub. I can give an experienced thumbs up for their eclectic menu and drinks. It is almost always busy, the atmosphere is energized and the service was excellent in my two visits.

Located in an upscale strip of Lake Oswego. There are a few other such bakeries in other Portland neighborhoods, as well. Many decadent pasteries with other restaurants, juice bars and ice cream places within a couple blocks.
