Cheese Bar

The highlight of my weekend in Portland, and the most relevant to this blog, was a trip to a little utopia called CHEESE BAR.  Oh yes.
The owner, Steve, used to have a very well known cheese shop in Portland (Steve's Cheese), and decided to fuse that idea with his other love, beer.  Just 11 months ago, Cheese Bar came a reality.  It's a small bar in a rather large room with a few tables, 6 beers on tap, a TON more bottled, a nice wine list, an endless supply of cheese, (to eat there or to take home), and a small, but well rounded menu if you'd like to sit and eat.
Matt and I wandered there Saturday afternoon and ended up having a great conversation with Steve, but only after eating more cheese than I'd ever imagine in one sitting (it was actually embarrassing), 2 sliced baguettes, and a charcuterie plate.  
But hey, its not every day you come across a gem like this!
