    Our First Impressions of New Portland area Restaurants

    We are as interested in the new places as everyone else, so there are times we will comment or give a "restaurant first impressions" rather than a regular full review.

    First Look: Noraneko Ramen in Portland

    By CuisineBonneFemme Last Update April 1, 2015 1 Comment

    Noraneko is a new ramen focused jewel box by Gabe Rosen and Kina Voelez of the popular Portland restaurant Biwa. Expect the same quality and industrial cool meets cozy vibe, but in a street front rather than a basement setting. The space is divided into an atrium like area in the front, with long two-top tables and a counter overlooking large windows, while the back has a … [Read more...] about First Look: Noraneko Ramen in Portland

If you're a pig who happens to catch Gabriel's eye, there's a good chance that 95% … [Read more...] about Review: Le Pigeon – Another View

    Ristorante Roma

    By KM Last Update January 16, 2014 10 Comments

    Walking past Ristorante Roma, one might summon up faded memories of family-run trattorie on Rome's back streets, set with starched white tablecloths and sturdy dishes, decorated with photographs of local monuments, where in the corner sits a swarthy man shoving spaghetti into his mouth with insouciant abandon and everything is immersed in the intoxicating aroma of tomato and … [Read more...] about Ristorante Roma

    Review: Blossoming Lotus

    By Paul Gerald Last Update January 16, 2014 27 Comments

    Note: The Pearl District location has closed.To list the Blossoming Lotus as a breakfast place seems to demean it. Even calling it a place that serves breakfast doesn’t remotely do it justice. How about this? On its Web site, the Lotus calls itself “a vortex of positive and loving vibrations for all to experience.” Seriously.Portland’s Blossoming Lotus (there’s one on … [Read more...] about Review: Blossoming Lotus
