Central Provisions left a delightful mark on my Portland visit! The intimate vibe is perfect for solo Dining or a date night, and I loved sitting at the bar to watch the kitchen's action.

We indulged in a variety of small plates; the fried cauliflower and spicy beef salad were standout hits that perfectly balanced flavor and texture. I absolutely adored the foie gras parfait for dessert - rich and decadent!

While the prices are on the higher side, the creativity and quality truly make it worthwhile. Don't skip the cocktails; they're expertly crafted! 🍸
