A very Portland meal
So, I officially moved to Portland in January of this year, but I did come to visit in the summer of 2015 (and fall) when I was looking for work.

I’ve never eaten at Sunnybrae but the more of the operations I saw at the rural site the more I want to … Continue reading Olive picking at Sunnybrae
Leblebi
Ok so this is a dish I’ve only had twice in Tunisia. But I remember two distinct things bout it: It was super moorish and amazingly heavy. In Tunis you are given a bowl and a day old baguette. You break up the baguette and then a ladle of chick pea broth is poured over … Continue reading Leblebi
