so this is the final installment of my portland series. most of these flicks are leftovers, but i figure this is in line with how sequals work – the third one is always the shittiest. ha.
here’s the wrap-up: my trip to portland was rad. other than it being like a billion degrees, there weren’t any low points. i gotta say that i can totally see myself living there one day. it seems super laid back, there’s cute boys (and girls) everywhere, awesome thrift shops, and rent is hella cheap! and the food…jesus, the food, is phenomenal. i almost checked off everything on my eating agenda and i was so stoked that no place disappointed. even when we moved hotels to the touristy area by the waterfront marriot i was able to find quality eats amid the sea subways and chipotles. i don’t know what the name of joint was, but i had an amazing bowl of red rice topped with curried vegetables and terriyaki buffalo. the combination was stellar. this place is in some basement foodcourt area attached to bally total fitness. wtf? anyhow, having the option of buffalo at a foodcourt blows my mind. portland, you’re fucking awesome.
again, more life pics than food pics. jeez, i feel like such a fuck-up. i promise my next post will be all food.
salmon hash at mothers. and they didn’t skimp on the salmon, let me tell you.
we picked up some roadside elk jerky that was super spendy. like $11 for 5 dehydrated strips. jerky was good, but i’m super grossed out by the pics. we look so oily and greeazy. like i said, it was unpleasantly hot, and i think i had run out of blotting papers at this point.
it’s hard to read, but it says: for vegetarians in denial, the chili still has meat and bacon is still bacon, but what the hell.
i love how snarky shitty diners can be.
do you recognize this rock? we headed up to astoria one day to do the goonies tour. surprisingly, we werent’t the only ones geeking out.
yay, all done!
