Mt Baker Ski Area

I haven't managed to ski in November before, but this season I got to at Mt Baker!

The mountain is a bit small and the runs are fairly easy, but there is So Much Snow! I did spent a lot of time waiting for lifts to start - they kept stopping. That might just be because it was the start of the season. Pretty good value for money.

Marbelous is my all time favorite cookie. Ever. People aren't kidding when they say that these are the best cookies that they have ever eaten!

The coffee is fair trade and delicious! you can purchase an attractive reusable mug here, too.

I've tried a couple of the vegan snacks, like the mint brownie, but they are a bit dry. Probably my opinion is biased, because the cookies are just so good.

Gene

Coffee shop nestled in the tip of a flatiron building, Gene is a pretty sweet place to grab a coffee and go, or sit in the window and people watch. Not good for hanging out a long time, because it's cramped and busy. It's also not so great for groups. But if you want to stop in for a sec and take a break, it's an awesome place to go.

While the coffee is pretty good and the snacks kind of meh, this place has a cool ambiance for getting some work done or meeting with friends. Try to snag the couches near the fireplace in the winter!! No internets, though.

Rhizome is good for so many reasons. On the surface, you get awesome and helpful staff as well as great, locally-sourced food and ethical coffee. Then when you get to know the place more, you'll find out that Rhizome supports and nurtures local organizations, hosting space for groups to meet and nights where people with similar interests can gather! There's a variety of seating - tables, sofas, and a "meeting room" or sorts. You can also get internet access.

Don't miss the bennys at brunch!!!

Rogue Ales Public House

Neighbourhood: Pearl District

4 star rating
 11/13/2009  
I've been a HUGE fan of Rogue for years. Out in NC when we couldn't get good beers because of some alcohol laws, every once in a while you could get a Rogue. I fell in love with the Dead Guy Ale, and ever since, I've pretty much always had a soft spot for the brew co. Double Dead Guy, 10,000 Brews, St. Rogue Red... the list goes on.

So, you can imagine my delight at getting to go to the Brew Pub. It was like going to Disney World, but for adults! I got a few pints of the Rogue Chatoe Wet Hop, and it was pretty fantastic. Didn't get the food.

I was disappointed in the service and how overly commercialized the place felt. No tours, either! I guess I came out feeling that Rogue is a bit less special than it once was to me, but overall I still had a good time.

We came here on the mistaken impression that this place was like a real brewery where you can go around and tour etc. Not so much. Compared to the other beer you can get in Portland, this beer was kind of meh (we went for IPAs, perhaps the other styles are better). The food was ok, but the sort of regular greasy fare. There was something seriously wrong with the fries, though. They tasted like they had been fried, got cold, and then fried again. Ugh.

Hotel deLuxe

This hotel was absolutely charming with impeccable service and an awesome bar and restaurant. We stayed here 3 nights and enjoyed how close the hotel is to the MAX. It's nice, because the hotel is just outside of the downtown district, keeping it quieter, but it's definitely close to everything. My only complaint was that the bathrooms were a bit cold, but other than that, everything was perfect. Calls for more coffee, different pillows, more towels, etc/whatever were attended to in no time at all. I would definitely stay here again.

Keep an eye out on Twitter for last minute specials!

I came here for brunch on a Monday, and I was impressed that brunch ran so late on a week day! Good to know. I had an eggs benedict, which was pretty good, and now I wish I had tried the gelato having read everyone else's reviews!

The service was quite good. The only problem was that they were out of quite a few things, like orange juice and granola. Pretty basic stuff. So, that was a bit annoying.
