Coming Home to Mother's

That's what you do after a long day, week, month, school year. You come home to Mom's. Which is easy to do when it Portland, you just head to Mother's Bistro & Bar. Do we look like a happy group? Well of course we do! This was the after dinner picture. The best way to describe Mother's is high end comfort food. One of their signature dishes is macaroni and cheese which changes every day. Today's feature was mac & cheese with broccoli and tillamook smoked cheddar, yum. And don't even get me started with the warm, homemade rolls. Melt in your mouth.



Food makes a great dinner. Your server makes it a great experience. Our server was Lee. He was easy going, funny & entertaining. Originally from New York he has recently relocated to Portland from San Francisco. Jenn and he bonded talking about the neighborhoods of Frisco. (You NEVER say Frisco to a San Franciscan. It's sacraligious. They frown, they fume, they foam at the mouth. Ok, you do say Frisco when the evening gets a little dull and you are up for some entertainment and possibly gratuitous violence). Anyway, we had a great time. So head for Mother's next time you are in Portland.
