Crust comes out charred just right, blistered at the edges from a wood fired oven that clearly knows what it’s doing. Toppings stay simple, nothing overcomplicated or trying too hard, just quality ingredients treated with enough respect to let them actually shine through.

This Gluten-Free Oregon Bakery Turns Out Croissants So Flaky Nobody Guesses the Secret

Gluten-free pastry has a reputation problem, and most people who avoid wheat have learned to expect less from the bakery case. One small shop in Beaverton, Oregon, is quietly changing that, one flaky layer at a time. Friends who eat regular bread keep ordering seconds without realizing anything is missing, and people with celiac disease drive across the Portland metro just to stock up.

The Best New Bars in Portland Right Now

The closure of several high-profile and well-loved drinking establishments, Pink Rabbit, Expatriate, and Eastburn among them, has the Oregonian speculating that Portland may be in the midst of another "barmageddon."

Either way, there's plenty of interesting new cocktail spots on both sides of the Willamette, and even a notable newcomer across the Columbia.
