Small Bites: Old Pal Will Close, Oysters, Bar Carlo, and More

Old Pal will close, but oysters are still available until then.
Oysters every night at Old Pal as they wind down business there in Sunnyside.

Old Pal will close. They’ve decided to close the restaurant and put more energy into their catering side, Field Day Feasts & Gatherings. Their final time of service will be New Year’s Eve.

“Old Pal has been so much more than a restaurant to us. It’s been a place to gather, celebrate, connect, and be part of a neighborhood we love so much. We’re endlessly grateful for every meal shared, every familiar face, every new friend, and especially the incredible team who have helped make Old Pal what it is. We couldn’t have done any of this without you.”

Until then, they will operate Wednesdays through Sundays, 4pm to 9pm; enjoy $2 oysters every night; December 13 will be the date of their final annual holiday market. They will be missed. 3350 SE Morrison Street, Portland.

Small Bites: Cobra Dogs, Tambayan, Pau Hana, and More

An example of Cobra Style at Cobra Dogs.
Cobra Style at Cobra Dogs from earlier this summer.

UPDATE: Cobra Dogs soft opens Saturday, November 14. New date! Their new brick and mortar presence at See See Motor Co./One Moto Cafe starts off on Saturday, November 14. This is another case of two businesses using the same space—coffee from 7am to 3pm, and hot dogs from noon to 9pm (til 10pm on weekends).

They’ve got a lot of interesting flavor combos for their dogs, but I do love the Cobra Style dog—cream cheese, Cobra sauce, sauerkraut, and celery sauce. I was dubious at first, but now I’ve seen the light. 1642 NE Sandy Blvd, Portland
