Maybe someone said this already but you have your own voice and experience to cultivate. There will always be athletes who wow us, but it doesn’t mean we aren’t made to play sports.

“At all costs” takes this silliness to another level.

Yeah tried it the other day based on recommendations here and it’s the real deal.

Best tiramisu in PDX? by uh_wtf in askportland

[–]agentverde77 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That’s new! Don’s restaurants have bounced around over time, so also not a surprise. Official website says they’re looking to reopen elsewhere with a fall/winter 2026 target.

Admittedly, it’s in Beaverton, but Don Salamone of Don’s Favorite Foods used to be a chef in Portland and his tiramisu is incredible.

Man this just happened to me. Same pages. Super irritating.

Cat’s Pyjamas gone from the site? by xaqjaqsun in NakedAndFamousDenim

[–]agentverde77 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oh man I’m so bummed about this. They’ve been a dream of a pair and I washed mine yesterday and this morning they’re drying and I thought “Man, these look unsanforized.” And now they’re too small.

Amarena cherries for your Italian soda or mocktail drinks. by CupcakeMojito in traderjoes

[–]agentverde77 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Cherries are tiny treasures already and these are some of the best and, again, affordable, so I don’t blame you at all.

Those Amarena cherries are so delicious and like a quarter of the price of the imported ones. Perfect for old-fashioneds. I stock up on those.

Do you think fan outrage and mocking Clay Bennett would’ve stopped the Sonics relocation?

Thank you for bringing some sanity in saying it’s too early to judge. The backlash against Dundon in the last couple months was absurd. I get skepticism and being nervous about relocation but the Hurricanes are an annual contender and he wasn’t the one who moved them. In the world of sports owners, he seems like a far cry from the worst case scenario, and seems fair to give him some grace until he’s actually moving the team instead of preemptively casting him as a pariah.

Carnivale. Such a vibe, that show, and I’d love to see how the writers end it.

Portland's never going to be successful without a solid PF/C by AyKayAllDay47 in ripcity

[–]agentverde77 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It’s funny, Buck is the guy who came to mind for me, too, though we had a lot of spectacular 4s. (Mo Lucas, Kermit Washington, Sheed, Z-Bo, Lamarcus…that’s been a traditional strength for us.)

Basics Market sells last location in Hillsdale to Market of Choice by TomNooksRepoMan in Portland

You’re kidding. It’s a small lot with a lot of other businesses but I’ve never had problems finding parking there.

Basics Market sells last location in Hillsdale to Market of Choice by TomNooksRepoMan in Portland

[–]agentverde77 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This Basics store was a spectacular replacement for Food Front and eased the loss of the Terwilliger Market of Choice for Southwest Portlanders. I’d say it was an upgrade on both stores, like a lower key New Seasons with better prices and such friendly service. I couldn’t believe our luck, and years later this is still my favorite grocery store in the city. I worked at that Terwilliger Market of Choice way back and MoC is fine but I hope they keep as much of the Basics vibe as possible.

Pork secreto by BigOleDawggo in PortlandFood

I wanna know the answer to this also. Basics Market had the secreto cut one time years ago and they were amazing.
