Our breakfast at Pine State Biscuits!

Pine State Biscuits

One of our morning stops before some Oregon site seeing was Pine State Biscuits. This place is really well known in the Portland area. We were definitely excited about this tasty stop from all of the great things we heard about it.

We thought we would have a nice breakfast before heading out to see the world famous Mount Saint Helens. Pine State Biscuits was very fast laced breakfast restaurant but had a very great uniqueness to it. The menu had a good variety. We chose the Reggie Deluxe and the Shrimp and Grits!

The Reggie Deluxe

This dish was fairly decent. It was some what different from regular breakfast dishes. The Reggie deluxe is a biscuit with fried chicken, cheese, bacon, and covered with sausage gravy. It didn't blow us away like we though but it was definitely tasty. It the flavors of everything were pleasing for a breakfast dish. The biscuit was fresh, the gravy had a nice flavor and the chicken was simply okay. We did appreciate the fact that they tried to think outside the box by incorporating fried chicken in a breakfast dish.

Shrimp and grits

This was a decently sized plate with 6 pieces of deliciously seared shrimp and a pile of bacon and shitake mushrooms on top of a bed of creamy grits. The appearance made you want to dig right in. Everything was seasoned perfectly. We tried the grits by themselves first and they had the perfect consistency and had a nice soft and mild flavor. Next we tried everything else on the plate, everything was AWESOME! The shrimp and mushrooms had an awesome flavor of the bacon and a wonderful garlic flavor that really stuck out. They cooked the mushrooms, bacon, garlic and shrimp all in the same pan and it couldn't have gotten any tastier. They definitely know there way around some shrimp and grits!

All in all we think that Pine State Biscuits is a pretty decent place to get breakfast. This was yet another Portland, Oregon restaurant review out of many of our tasty stops. Until our next review, TASTY!

Bourbon, burgers, and Bar Louie!

This restaurant may sound familiar to some. We've eaten here before and have never been disappointed with the food or service. Stop into Bar Louie for some great food and and a great late night type of atmosphere, or maybe just after doing a little shopping in the mall. Bourbon Bacon Burger Just by looking at the special limited time menu of this burger and many other special sandwiches alike, we knew this burger would be incredibly flavorful. A beautifully cooked meat patty deserves nothing better than a beautifully crafted sauce and delcious toppings to back them up. A perfect meat patty topped with cheddar cheese, bacon, a delcious bourbon sauce and a nice stack of fried onion straws... It's making my mouth water just thinking about it... Unsurprisingly, the look of the burger was astonishing. The juicy patty had a decent portion of crispy onion straws that make the presentation really stick out. The first bite ...

Noodlecat's Dream Buns

If you're strolling through downtown Cleveland we hope you stumble into Noodlecat . Located on Euclid Ave, you will be surrounded by a few different popular restaurants, don't be shy! Try them all! From our experience you can't go wrong. Noodlecat serves up three main options noodles, buns, and veggies. Unfortunately we did not come for noodles on this visit, we came for the Japanese Steam Buns! We picked 2 of the 5 bun options they had available and went with the J-fried Chicken bun and the Fresh bacon bun. These Buns are Japanese white bread sandwiches each topped with lettuce and pickle. For the J-fried Chicken Bun, this soft steam bun has a piece of fried chicken, sweet and spicy power ketchup. At first bite you're in love. The fresh steam buns are amazing. The chicken was crispy, tangy, and delicious but it was no match for the next bun that we tried! The Fresh Bacon Bun was filled with a delicious slice of lightly smoked, sugar ...

The Ale House May be Good for Whatever Ails You

All of you Ohio natives out there, if you havent been to Ale house 1890 in Lancaster Ohio you are definitely missing out. They have wonderful hamburgers and so many to menu items to choose from! All of these burgers are specially made with their own selection of fresh ingredients. They definitely know their way around a burger! They also have new specials pretty frequently such as fried macoroni! (See review for fried Macoroni below!) so go in and don't miss them! Ale House 1890 Our first pick from the menu was the Barnyard Burger. Barnyard Burger This burger was an absolute taste masterpiece! The first bite I took I could immediately taste the sweetness of marmalade and the grilled taste of the patty which collided with each other creating a wonderful taste combination. The garlic aoli was a nice touch to the burger as well, better than mayonnaise if you ask me! Also the micro greens was a great bonus to an already delcious sandwich. And what is bet...
