Bread and Ink Cafe, or simply Bread and Ink, is a restaurant in Portland, Oregon.
Description
[edit | edit source]Bread and Ink Cafe is located in southeast Portland's Richmond neighborhood. Jane and Michael Stern have described the restaurant as a "folksy place" with "interesting" wall art and food which "reflects a sophisticated urban palate". The duo said of the interior, "Bread and Ink is a nice place to sit. Tall windows provide diners with a view of the comings-and-goings on Hawthorne; and tables are outfitted with well-cushioned chairs conducive to leisurely meals and relaxed conversation."[2]
The menu includes grilled curried chicken, jerked game hen, and Italian wedding cake. The hamburger, considered a favorite, has a one-third pound patty on an onion bun with aioli, ketchup, mayonnaise, and mustard. Other options include blue, cheddar, or Swiss cheese, bacon, mushrooms, and tomatillo sauce. The breakfast menu includes biscuits and gravy, chicken and waffles, Frisian French toast, and skillet scrambles. On weekends, Eggs Benedict made with smoked pork loin and lox benedict with smoked salmon are available.[2]

Reception
