The Jupiter hotel is one of the funnest places I've stayed. It has a sixty's style decor that brings out the party animal in any hipster. Attached to the hotel is the Doug Fir Lounge, it has nightly music that attracts a crowd of local hipsters. When the Fir closes for the evening some of the patrons head back to the hotel part of the Jupiter, where it is party balls all night! |
This
is the great Powell Books memorial monument. |
 The mystery of
fondue.
|
and the balance of
dessert

| The Melting Pot is very much to fondue as the Red Lobster is to sea food. |  Chocolate Kisses |

I found Vincente's Pizza by sheer luck. The pizza here is off the hook. The best I have had in a long time! |

If there is a soul reason for the obesity problem in Portland it's The Original Pancake House and thier Dirty Dutch Baby. |

I had never heard of the Illuminastry Trio, but I knew
by the by the kind look in Bob's eyes this was one trio I did not want
to miss. I could have not picked a better
band to see on
Saturday night than the Illuminastry trio. These guys take it
to the next level! These guys restored my faith in jazz.
Thank you Bob Dobbs, thank you for showing me the
way! Illuminastry Trio features Skerik on sax (Les Claypool, Garage a Trois, Critters Buggin,) Mike Dillon on vibes and percussion (Les Claypool, Ani DiFranco, Hairy Apes BMX) and New Orleans standup bassist extraordinaire Jim Singleton (Astral Project). |
