A short 15-20 minute walk up the hill from my home. Council Crest offers a staggering 360 degree view of Portland and on clear days one can see Mt Hood, Mt St Helens and Mt Rainier.

I highly recommend spending some time in the Pearl District. When I moved here 20+ years ago it was all abandoned warehouses, now it's one of the crown jewels of Portland and filled with shops and restaurants.

Funky little taco eatery hole in the wall that won the "Restaurant of the Year" a few years ago. Great food and worth the line but stick to the cerveza instead of their mixed drinks.

This place has been around for decades and the happy hour bar menu is amazing but be sure to get there before 9:30 if you want to get a table. Amazing food, onion rings are the best, their steak bites are famous and Jimmy the bartender has been there for over 33 years. Old school elegance!
