    Review: El Gaucho Steakhouse

    By PDX Food Dude Last Update September 4, 2017 35 Comments

    To many, El Gaucho epitomizes what a steakhouse should be. It feels sophisticated. The atmosphere is formal, the lighting dim and romantic, and lots of dark wood provides a backdrop to tinkling stemware and white linens.

    Review: Noble Rot 2.0

    By PDX Food Dude Last Update November 25, 2017 57 Comments

    Noble Rot has a somewhat confusing pedigree. As I understand, it was originally started by chef Leather Storrs, and received positive reviews, including from me. I liked the warm, comforting atmosphere and the limited but mostly well-executed menu. In 2007, Leather left and opened another restaurant on East Burnside called Rocket. This new restaurant was known for its … [Read more...] about Review: Noble Rot 2.0

    Review: Teardrop Cocktail Lounge

    By PDX Food Dude Last Update June 12, 2019 28 Comments

    Teardrop Lounge

    July 2007. The mixed drink scene has changed quite a bit since this was written, but my overall feel about Teardrop Cocktail Lounge is unchanged.As I was doing research for this review in my father's old bar notebook, I came across a list of ingredients labeled "always have on hand". What especially interested me were incidentals like falernum, cassis, five types of … [Read more...] about Review: Teardrop Cocktail Lounge
