A Helpful Guide to Dining at PDX (Concourses D and E)

What you see before you head through security at PDX. — Photo credit: Meg Cotner.

Because I fly a lot for work, I’ve been able to see the Portland Airport (PDX) overhaul as it proceeds, and all the new and returning food and drink options that have come with it. We are blessed with one of the most attractive and hospitable airports in the U.S., and Portlanders take advantage of that. Between the selection and the guarantee of like-street prices, I have eaten many meals before a departure or after an arrival, and I have personal experience of almost all the vendors while dining at PDX.

Change in Peter’s Bar & Grill ownership. This past week, the Facebook page for Peter’s Bar & Grill posted a goodbye message: “After a little over 11 years, today was our last day as the owners of Peter’s Bar & Grill. We feel so fortunate to have had this experience. We are so grateful to everyone who welcomed us into this community …. Because of all of you, we’re excited for what Peter’s will be in the future.” It was signed by Tim, Tara, Alex, Piper, & Casey.

I’ve reached out to learn more. My hope is that they do not end up closing. 5701 NE Fremont Street, Portland

Sizzle Pie Expands to Old Hotlips Space

Looks like the Concordia neighborhood is going to get their very own Sizzle Pie pizzeria. After Hotlips Pizza closed their locations this past spring, a number of storefronts opened up—to Sizzle Pie’s benefit, in this case (Fusion Curry Pizza is to open in the former Hotlips location in the Hollywood District).
