Similar to
last year's day-of-the-event celebration, we did a walking/eating tour of Sellwood and Westmoreland. A friend from work graciously volunteered to come over and watch the boys. We also added a movie in the mix:
Cowboys and Aliens, which started out well enough, but faded quickly. After the movie we went next door to Limelight Lounge where they had a great deal: three steak tacos for four bucks. But Meg opted for some portabello mushroom sandwiches.
We then walked next door to the
Moreland House for fries covered in blue cheese and bacon. Bacon makes everything taste better.
Next up was Papaya Thai, but they were closed for renovations, so we walked down to Sellwood near our old house and visited the
Jade Teahouse. Meg had been here before (without me? for shame), and I had heard other people rave about the place. The building is always packed--inside and out, even on weekdays--so that's a good sign, right? But I left underwhelmed.

We only hit three different establishments, a far cry from last year's eight. I think we should make this our yearly tradition, with one rule: we can't visit a place in consecutive years. With turn-over high in the restaurant business, and with such a high concentration of eateries in our neighborhood, this probably isn't necessary.
