Rimsky-KorsaKoffee House

Their iconic dessert of Raspberry Fool is delicious.

Rimsky-KorsaKoffee House has been in this house in southeast

Portland for as long as I can remember.

If you don't know where it is, you might miss it.

It is a "kitschy" place full of whimsy.

For the women, make sure you stop by the bathroom.

What fun!

It was opened by Goody Cable, who also owns the B&B

Sylvia Beach Hotel in Newport, Oregon.

Definitely a coffee house, though they do serve a cup of tea too.

The desserts and sometimes live music is the highlight.

A great place to go after the show.

Jake's Famous Crawfish

Sometimes a month flies by and I haven't shared with you here.

A special meal for my husband and I is always Jake's Famous Crawfish.

We especially love coming here for dependable, delicious seafood.

On the other hand I can say there berry cobbler is worth a visit too.

It is a great place to take out of town visitors and gives them a touch

of downtown Portland and an old established seafood restaurant.

reservations probably are a good idea, but we have 

sometimes gotten in without them.
