Birthday at BodaBirthdays come once a year and dates with my husband are nearly as rare, which is why scouring restaurant reviews and choosing wisely become essential. (Not to mention my habit of getting unforgivably grumpy after a disappointing restaurant meal). So, after some research, I selected Boda, a trendy “very Thai” restaurant at 671 Congress Street in Portland. Word on the street was that Boda was worth trying and their website touts it as authentic Thai…the stuff you get on the streets of Thailand, people! ( Wait a minute, what have I been getting?)We took the date-night challenge of…

I’m clearly not the first to report that the Mexican restaurant on the corner of High and York streets, El Rayo Taqueria (http://elrayotaqueria.com), is the best new(ish) thing going. I discovered El Rayo this summer, when it appeared to have really hit its stride, accommodating a big crowd with the plentiful outdoor seating.The food is simple, fresh and satisfying. The people at El Rayo recognize that sometimes all you want is a fish taco and a beer. In other words, you can actually eat Mexican food without needing a huge nap afterward. The casual setting has outdoor picnic tables have…
