During my stay in Portland I have had so many good eats, but I’ve narrowed it down to share with you a couple of my top favorites of the trip…
Departure Restaurant & Lounge
@DeparturePDX
A fun modern Asian restaurant and lounge, with an unbeatable view on the 15th floor, downtown above Macy’s. What a special place! Not only is the atmosphere astonishing, the food is incredible. Besides their regular menu, Departure offers a vegan menu and a gluten-free menu. All you have to do is ask your server and the dishes will blow you away.
Sweet Potato Tempura Roll - spinach, ginger, sweet soy
I also loved the
Brussels Sprouts - chili, lime, mint
Greens & Seeds Roll - avocado, cucumber, herbs, pumpkin seed, sesame
For breakfast we couldn’t wait to try out the famous
Blue Star Donuts
Blueberry-Bourbon-Basil Vegan Donut
It was ridiculously good…
Honorable Mention:
The Kofta Fritter from Blossoming Lotus Restaurant. This dish is also gluten-free, soy-free, and oh so good! My husband and I loved it.
Also worth mentioning :
Portobello Vegan Trattoria 1125 SE Division Street, Portland, OR 97202 P 503-754-5993
Although we sadly have not had the opportunity to visit on this trip to Portland, we’ve previously had the great experience of dining at Portobello @PortobelloPDX, and to this day it is probably my favorite 100% vegan restaurant.
With love, good eats, and exciting travels,
