So since I'm moving back to the NW after a 25 year absense, I'd love to know if my fav eateries are still there and are still good:

Jakes - is one of the bartenters still Paul L?
The Oyster Bar
Hung Far Lows - was the best off the menu food
Staniches - not sure if I spelled it right...it's the little pub with the HUGE everything on 'em burgers
The Original Pancake House - Love those German Pancakes

There's a couple of other places I loved and I could still drive right there but the name is lost.

Also, where's the best place to get fresh grilled salmon and halibut these days? The seafood is one of the things I miss the most along with yummy fresh rasberries. Down here in GA everything is fried to the nth degree

My mouth starts watering when I think of moving back. For xmas this year a friend who is also stuck here and trying to get back to the PacNW had fresh froz halibut and salmon shipped to me...man o man what a treat and 1/2

Does anyone remember going to the White Eagle Cafe...BEFORE they foo foo'd it up? When they used to serve peanuts, dump a bowl on the table and then clean it off by swiping their arm across the table and launching the shells on the floor...LOL...OK so I'm tellin' my age a bit here Or Or, how bout playin' pool at the Lotus Card room...LOL

Jakes (both the seafood & grill) are both still there (don't know about the bartenders, however)
Hung Far Lows - moved east to 82nd (sign still in Chinatown)
Pancake House - I think it's still there; haven't been by it in awhile

salmon? it seems like half the restaurants in Portland serve it. Some are caught locally, after all...
