Feed Me Portland!

The other night a friend and I unexpectedly wound up at Lupa for a light late night dinner. We ordered a few little things to start, Romano beans with ricotta (good), house cured tongue (ridiculously delicious), and clams with Fregola and basil. We then had the best Spagh

A busy holiday weekend means I don't go all gourmet every night. I did manage to make some banana bread (Better Homes and Gardens recipe).

I know this topic has been sprinkled throughout the board, but I thought it would be great to have a centralized recommendation list...if there's already one, I'm sorry I didn't locate it.
