[XXXL]

@CBM hit me up i'll be moving next month, i should be settled by then. if anyone wants to join us / show us around feel free!

[M.O.A]

Lets organize a proper meet-up. If you guys wanna pick a day and time to come through Tanner Goods, I'll have beers at the ready.

[CBM]

Sounds good! I can do either the 15th or 16th of July. Have no real plans while I am there apart from a couple of stores, restaurants, etc that I want to check out.

[Kemosabe]

[Denton]

I'll be back in town but taking a full course load. I might be able to find my way out of studio for a day or two though.

[Denton]

in other news about to eat organic free range craft whatever at woodsman tavern tonight.

disappointing.

[Christmas In A Submarine.]

what'd you get?

[Denton]

half chicken, fries, duck nuggets. gf got pork chop and some salad thing. and devised eggs. fries were good. beer too. rest was meh. not bad but you can do way better for the price. and the seats were really uncomfortable.

[EG562]

Ready for the chalkboard, rustic, edison bulb vibe to take a backseat and let the food do the talking.

[M.O.A]

still haven't been to Woodsman... reviews from my friends are usually quite mixed.

Anyone hit up Ned Ludd? So proper... cooks everything in a giant wood fired oven but no pizza.

So good!

How do you all like living in Portland?

What are pros and cons? Anyone living near OHSU?

[An Oxymoron]

i love it here. it's small, but hugely enjoyable. friendly people, good food with plenty of farmers markets and sources for buying produce/meat directly from farms. great sense of community, easy access to the outdoors/hiking/camping/skiing. i moved here ("trendy" nw 23rd area) from san francisco and i think i like it more here. also, my dad lives up by ohsu and it's beautiful up there. i'll be moving in with him this summer to save money for my travels, so we'll see how i like being a bit further further from the action.

i've seen portland on several "best places to live in the world" lists, with a few first place finishes.

some people can't get past the "fixie riding hipsters," but those are the shallow fuckers that don't actually get to know them.

[EG562]

Living on the south east side is pretty nice. A lot of character in the neighborhoods.

Went to sunshine tavern last night, solid gastropub foods, had upright 4 on tap which is a tasty belgian wheat ale.

[Denton]

southeast is the queens of portland

or yonkers

[crishan]

Heading to Portland for 5 days in July. Heard lots of people suggesting to get a bike when I'm there but all the hire places are at least $100 for a week. Any suggestions for a frugal traveller?

[crishan]

Also I'll be around from the 14th onwards too.

[XXXL]

Sounds good, hope im not workin

[CBM]

Fly into Portland tomorrow afternoon, and cannot wait.

You guys still up for the meet-up? Maybe tomorrow night or Monday?
