The Bar Snack of Bar Snacks: Laurelwood NW Public House
Sadly, it no longer looks like this in Portland now. The sunglasses have been stowed away - not to return for another 7 months. That's okay because Portland has a vast supply of microbreweries and pubs to distract from the lack of awesomely harmful UV rays. One of them being Laurelwood Brewery (Portland's first certified organic brewery) started by a husband and wife duo 9 years ago. Besides the beers being fantastically hoppy - in true Portlandia fashion, Laurelwood Public House serves up my most coveted bar snack.
Chickpea Fries ($5) with tzatziki and harissa aioli have won me over. The earthy, hearty spears made out of chickpea flour and spices have the perfect golden crunch on the outside with a deliciously doughy center. The two dipping sauces are superb - a little spicy from the harissa aioli contrasted with the cool cucumbery tzatziki makes for the perfect beer accompanying snack. I wouldn't dare drink my beer with anything else! Pssssst! These are $4 during happy hour Hot Tip: $3 during happy hour And maybe you're wondering what those black objects are in the background? My sister in law, visiting from Moscow, ID, foraged for blackberries in a nearby park to share during happy hour (with our server as well).
