Portland Recommendations?
I'd recommend Saigon Kitchen -- not a fancy place at all, but the food is great!

Best Indian food north of the Bay area, but it is out in Beaverton, rather than Portland proper. Sorry I don't have the address handy, but all my local Indian friends swear by this place (I understand there's a branch in Vancouver BC, as well, but we forgot about it when we were up there a couple weeks ago. Darn.). Very very yummy the one time I went. -josh

I had both of their specials (soup and stergeon(sp) ) and I loved both . They also had some very good derserts. it is in a funky old building right across the street from the new Holiday Inn Express (which now has highspeed BTW) on NW Vaughn St. It is small and intimate. I can't wait to go back ... Mr. T. wrote: > We're going on a short trip to downtown Portland next week. Any "not to > miss" places to eat?
