i heart portland

each time i return to portland, it feels more and more like home. i'm sure it has something to do with the beautiful weather, but lately i've been feeling particularly enamored with this city. i heart portland may turn into a little series on the blog, and today's post is all about the fresh and inventive food that's within walking distance of my apartment (spoiler alert: all future posts will probably be about food, too).

1. kale salad and cornmeal crust pizza with smoked mozzarella, balsamic onions + corn.
2. olives before feasting on clams and potato pancakes at navarre.
3. salt & straw -- almond brittle with salted ganache and sea salt ice cream with caramel.
