Tandem Coffee at the Flea-for-All

Tandem Coffee is setting up an outpost at the Portland Flea-for-All. They’ll be serving pour-overs and selling bags of whole beans weekly on Saturdays and Sundays beginning today at 10 am. I’d recommend the Whahana natural process from Sumatra.

Chris Stiegler, former roaster at Mornings in Paris, has joined the staff at Tandem and will be manning the new weekend coffee station.

Katie Made Open House

Katie Made had an Open House Saturday at their new location, 181 Congress Street, and will be open again today.

Open house was so sucessful we decided to do it again tomorrow!! If you weren’t able to come by today stop on over, see our new home, and try some yummy food…open at 9 a.m.! All on donation.

They’re still awaiting a final state inspection approval and in the meantime are operating on a donation basis.

Otto Pizza Expansion Now Open

I just stopped by for a glass of wine and a slice at the new bar space at the original Otto Pizza on Congress Street. Diners now have a choice between going in the center door for a quick slice to go, or either bar to the left and right for table service with wine and beer. The new bar area only opened at around 2 hours earlier but was quickly reaching full capacity.

The new bar area is about 50% larger than Enzo but with the same subway tile, vintage wood and exposed brick aesthetic.
