Screen Door, Portland Oregon


Picked Him up from work tonight. Received a tour of the new digs. Way cool. No, lets make that way, way, way cool. (that is three ways) He scored on that gig. Went to eat at the Screen Door. Which translates to later he gets a tour of me. Yum. Was greeted at the door with the great music. It is weird how the music is paired perfectly with the food on the menu. Specifically what I ordered. Then started again with a great cocktail. I am a sucker for any cocktail with fresh ginger. This one is called the Rhett Butler. Makers Mark, fresh pureed ginger and lemon on ice. Mixed by a bartender who truly cares about your happiness. Yum! so I had to have another. The food, superb. Sweet potato fries. I am an expert on sweet potato fries and hands down the Screen Door serves the best. Watercress salad with roasted beets, a sprinkling of some sort of yummy creamy cheese and a very delicate dressing. Yum! Paired this with ever so slightly spicy grits and shrimp. Yum! He had the nightly special. A something pork with a side of savory bread pudding and an apple compote. Yum. Fell in love with the waiter. He built his own guitar. This is the place to be.
