Incredible vegan bakery. Best donuts in town - vegan or not. If you wanna look like a chump, go buy the pink voodoo box and hang your head in shame. The locals in the know love Back to Eden, Pips and occasionally the Bluestar Buttermilk Donuts.

The only good option for electronic dance music in Portland. 45 East is not for everyone, but if you want to dance your face off and party like you're in Vegas - this is your spot. Avoid the westside danceclubs unless you are looking for more of the same and the side of Portland folks tend to attribute to the "bridge&tunnel crowd".
