Olympic Provisions

Easily the hippest new restaurant in town—and it’s all about the meat (in illuminated letters, I might add). Yes, there are delicious looking egg and veggie dishes, but you’d be crazy not to order the crispy fried pork terrine and braised escarole sandwich from Oregon’s first USDA certified meat-curing facility. The industrial-chic decor and extensive local and European wine list will make it a hot date spot when dinner starts up soon. Wholesale and retail deli also right around the corner.
