Tani's and Fred Meyer

KDB wasn't sure if we wanted to have dinner downtown but I nixed that idea because I wasn't too keen on being where all the tourists were. We'd already been there and done that three years ago. Instead, I asked him if he would recommend a place near him...

After haggling over different types of cuisines, we settled on Japanese so he recommended this place, just a few blocks from where he lives in the Woodstock neighborhood in SE Portland.

Tonalli's Donuts & Cream

Our next stop was a local donut place literally a few blocks away...

The anti-Voodoo Donuts you could say.

No wierd flavors or "shapes" here, but most importantly, no long line!

Day 1 - Pine State Biscuits (NE Alberta)

Before I begin, here's something that KDB sent me through an email. I thought it was pretty funny and fitting before the onslaught of the Portland posts:

"I'm in a band..."
"Actually, it's pronounced Cooch"
"I don't really eat meat...unless it's finished on acorns"
"Where in the fk is the streetcar?"
"Look! Naked bike riders!"
"I have chickens too!"
"It's stirred with three puppy whiskers"
"I'm working part time as a barista"
"I totally went to school with Tonya Harding"
"I just moved here from..."

So fkg funny!

Let's get started now...
