On my second trip to Portland, OR in as many years, I’m happy to report that the PDX food scene is only getting better. Many new restaurants have opened since my last visit and I was fortunate to dine at several of these last week.

My little brother has been galavanting around South East Asia for months, and we don’t know when he’s coming back. He took these pictures in Vietnam, at a floating market on the Mekong Delta. Don’t you just love the way they hang all their produce up on a pole on their boat to show what they’re selling?
