The Phoenix Rises Again: Reo’s Ribs Will Re-Open

It still looks pretty much the same since 2017.

You heard that right: Reo’s Ribs is reopening, sometime in September 2023, according to their Facebook page. The business, which focuses on barbecue and soul food, has endured much over the years in the way of fire, so I’m really impressed to see that they are making a go of it again.

Kainos Coffee in Roseway Will Close

The charitable angle at Kainos, ca 2017.

Last weekend, a neighbor posted on social media that Kainos Coffee on NE Sandy Blvd is closing their cafe there at the end of September. This is a neighborhood favorite so as you can imagine, it’s a major bummer to see them depart. But there is more to the story.

Tasty Vietnamese Food at Three Fifty Cafe

The exterior of Three Fifty Cafe on NE Prescott in Cully.

Last week I had a chance to spend some time at Cully’s Three Fifty Cafe, and tried a handful of delicious items. If you haven’t been by, I recommend stopping in soon. From coffee to banh mi to salad rolls, the cafe is offering really good Vietnamese food that I look forward to eating again.

Note: I was invited by the owners who comped my meal, but observations are my own.

Coffee in the News – Denizens, Coava, and More

An excellent cappuccino I had recently at Juniors on NE Prescott.

For whatever reason, coffee news is big this week. I love coffee and had a great latte from the good folks at Case Study (NE Sandy Blvd) this morning. As for the news, there are tidbits on Coava, Denizens Cafe, Barista and Roseline, and Ben & Esther’s (who serve coffee).

A few days ago, James Helms posted on social media the news that the Rocky Butte Espresso Bar, which closed in late 2022, has a new location … as well as a new concept and new name. Along with coffee there are plans for food, and a projected opening is unknown at this time. The new name is Denizens Cafe.
