CHANGING DOWNTOWN PORTLAND RESTAURANT SCENE

 

After finishing our reflexology session, Ann and I took the streetcar towards the center of town where we decided to find a place for lunch.  We were surprised to see that entire city blocks are now barricaded to make room for people to stroll and for restaurants to place tables on the street. 

Some streets allow one lane for vehicles but others are completely closed.  As we walked towards the corner where Jake's Crawfish, Zeus, Lardo, and Cheryl's are located, we found a couple of other new tiny cafes (one featuring a plant based menu).  It was like a giant party.  Even on a weekday afternoon, people were everywhere enjoying good food and beautiful weather

We chose Chery's for lunch.  They have an extensive outdoor dining area, as well as indoor facilities.  Ann had fish tacos and I ordered chicken fajitas.  My lunch was served in TWO huge plates so it was quite a challenge to figure out where to start.  Check them out on your next visit to downtown......................
