Hello everyone.
For those of you who don’t know me, I’m a “foodie”. I’ve got a lot of time working in different kitchens and will always love the exploration, and experimentation or food and its flavors!
My first blog post will be about Jessica and I’s recent trip to Portland, Oregon. No matter where we go, no matter how much time we have, Jessica plans our “events” and I plan our food. I decided to go out on a whim in Portland. Normally, I pick something that sounds different, or experimental, or extreme. However in Portland, we hit up the Stepping Stone Cafe (featured on Man vs Food) to try their “ManCakes” for breakfast. Which was a given. If something is featured on Man vs Food or Diners, Drive-ins & Dives then I will stop there if in the area.
The odd spot out of our plan was where I decided to go for lunch. The Rock Bottom Brewery. A pretty large, Spaghetti Factory looking diner/pub in the downtown core 
of Portland. We went in with the lowest of expectations, so I ordered their signature Burger (a good test for any establishment). What was to come, became the greatest burger I’ve ever eaten to this day. I’ve tried many of burgers, and they are mostly enjoyable, but this burger….. was RIDICULOUS! The combination of their housemade BBQ sauce, their slow baked bacon and their steak patty was an absolute pleasure.
If you are ever in the Portland area, head downtown (we got lost on the trolley cars) and hit up Rock Bottom Brewery!
