It’s that time of the year again. Time for the ROSE FESTIVAL! CityFair starts this weekend on May 24th and will continue until June 9th.

I’m personally excited for “A Walk on the Wild Side," a live animal exhibit. In previous years they’ve had a baby tiger available for petting. Cross your fingers that they’ll have another little one this year! Besides the babies they have lions, birds, reptiles and a mix of exotic mammals.

In usual Portland style, there will be plenty of food carts with everyone’s favorite festival foods.

This coming weekend is also a KINK 101.9 concert in the RoZone, also located on the waterfront.

Rogue Brewery will also be a big hit this year, pouring their limited edition Rose Festival Ale and spirits.

See you there!

Since 1995, Saucebox has commanded plenty of attention from the Portland restaurant scene. From its chic design by famed architect, Brad Cloepfil, to its popular Pan-Asian cuisine, it's no wonder Saucebox has staying power. Choose from the sushi menu or fill up on dim sum, braised pork shank or pan-roasted halibut. Looking for something a little simpler without missing the Saucebox taste? Check out the café menu, which includes noodles, soups, burgers, and sandwiches. In the mood for a fun night out? Saucebox doesn't just get high marks for dining—it's a staple for nightlife as well. Serving the finest in mixology, the restaurant has a seemingly endless cocktail menu. The hip nightspot can mix almost any liquor (including sake) to create exotic, exciting drinks. Come early for happy hour, Monday through Saturday until 6:30 p.m., when drinks range from $3 – $5 and hearty snacks are just $1 – $5.
