Bazkari Catering & Portland Eats
There are two new additions to the Portland Food Map directory: Bazkari Catering and Portland Eats.
Bazkari runs a daily lunch delivery service and starting today are serving their Spanish cuisine from one of the day tables on the 2nd floor of the Public Market House. The owner’s cooking is inspired by the time she’s spent in Peru, Bolivia as well as the Basque and Andalusian areas of Spain.
Portland Eats is a new food blog that’s just published a MRW review of Evangeline,
I’m glad that I am writing about dinner at Evangline as one of my first posts. Having dined at many restaurants over the past two years in Portland, Evangeline is one of my favorites. It’s not just the food (which is excellent), but the service, atmosphere, decor and general vibe of the restaurant that are all spot-on.
