Foxtrot


Having pie at the former Pied Cow revisited, now called Foxtrot. I suspect the presence of spirits as the best explanation for the peculiar energy of this place, which is a blend of 1860s and 1960s time warps (with a dash of 1990s thrown in).


 

Tao of Tea

 

Whipping over to Belmont St. for lunch at Tao of Tea.

Wallflower Coffee

 

Another coffee highlight of Portland, OR - also located on the famous Division St.

Salt & Straw

 

 Portland's famous artisanal ice cream venue on SE Division and the view out the window.

Bollywood Theater


An Indian "street food" venue on SE Division St. that we ate at years ago. I now read that it is permanently closed and soon to be turned into an Italian restaurant and market. Whereas their location on Alberta St. remains open.

gachapon


At Collage on SE Division: a Japanese vending machine called a gachapon which dispenses toys.

The Fresh Pot


The coffee shop connected to Powell's Books on Hawthorne, and the view of the Bagdad Theater and Pub out the window.
