McMenamins Roadhouse, Corvallis Meat Pie Shop, 2 Towns Ciderhouse

A few food and beverage highlights.

We took a trip to Portland to take some stuff to our storage unit, and pick up packages from our mailbox. While there, we went to a favorite restaurant, McMenamins Cornelius Pass Roadhouse in Hillsboro, Oregon:

Like most McMenamins restaurants, it is housed in a historic structure, with interesting decor:

Another day, we went to the Corvallis Meat Pie Shop, an Australian food shop:

The owner was a bit of a character, a very talkative Aussie. Of course, he had some comments about Kiwis vs Aussies once we mentioned I’m from NZ:

Very tasty meat pies and sausage rolls; such a rare treat for me in the US:

Lastly, a couple of days later we went to 2 Towns Ciderhouse, our favorite cider maker:

We got a couple of sampler flights (and some snacks as an ad hoc lunch) to try various flavors:

Of course, we had to stock up while there, with a case of our all-time favorite flavor, Pacific Pineapple, and some others:

We stored them in the cooler in our RV basement:
