Portland Favorites

Ok as my first official Blogger post, i should do something totally unoriginal, just to get it out of the way. Hopefully my later posts will be much better.

coffee place: Ugly Mug. it's in sellwood. they serve stumptown. they don't offer soy or whole milk on the condiment table. they sometimes are out of 1/2 & 1/2, but will always happily fill up or give a fresh one. The have the best quiche for breakfast. they came in after the starbucks and kick their ass each morning. Jen rocks. she always is on the verge of some fantastic joke or way of viewing the world today, and her brashness can never be confused with synicism. just lack of coffee. or only 4 cups. uglymugpdx.com

thai food: One Thai. up on Alberta. Not only is a purrfect spot for people watching Last Thursday, My food rivaled the infamous "Ring of Fire" in Eugene. unbelievable. unheard of. unspeakably yummy.

burger and a beer: So far it is at the Oaks Bottom Public House. in Westmoreland, next to the tullys coffee. One of the New Old Lompoc's. Not only do they offer Strawberry mountain beef (rbgh free!), but they will cook it rare for you. Additionally, they have tater tots & fries. and they have my most favorite Pork loin sandwich, which may not technically be a burger, but is amazing. Also they have lots of beer on tap, especially ones you can't find anywhere else, and ones that might be specially made for them. they rock!

That's it for now. as always, a work in progress!
