Food Scene

Not your mom's thai food restaurant. Get the fish sauce wings and boar collar(Muu Paa Kham Waan), and whatever else you want because it's all delicious.

Such good brunch! A blurb from Eater 38 Portland: "John Gorham's insanely popular second spot reinvents Portland's favorite meal — brunch — taking it to new heights worth the inevitable wait. The sprawling, family-style menu flaunts influences from North Africa to Asia to the American South, with a strong "put an egg on it ethos." Think shakshuka with merguez sausage, or steak and eggs with corncakes. For dinner, the recently revamped spot got an updated menu with a mix-and-match, Chesapeake Bay spin."

Everyone has to go to the Salt and Straw at least once while visiting PDX. It's ice cream that is both delicious and inventive, and worth the wait in line that is typically out the door.

You could go to Voodoo donuts, they're great, or you could go to Pips! They are my personal favorite donut shop in Portland. Their donuts are mini, made to order, and come in 5 flavors. Get them all!

Parks & Nature

Cathedral Park is truly stunning and provides you access to the Willamette River. Great spot for a picnic or dog watching as most of the park is an off-leash dog park.

It's a mountain in the middle of the city! More like a tall hill actually. There are stairs to the top and from there you can see great views of the city and Mt. Hood to the east.
