Something Different, Something New
Something Local Just for You

Welcome
Meet the Locals

Need a last-minute gift for a birthday or baby shower? No problem. Wondering how you will live without a new Microplane grater or garlic peeler? Wonder no more. We carry a chef's selection of kitchen tools and cookbooks for every day, special diets and big moments. You can find all kinds of wonderful gifts at our stores including candles and greeting cards created by local artists and crafters.

Jen Stevenson

Portland, OR

Rose City, Rip City, Stumptown and now Portland’s newest name: The City That Never Stops Eating. Extraordinary eating opportunities abound in a little gem of a book by Jen Stevenson entitled the Best Places to Stuff Your Faces. Selections are based on Jen’s own personal favorites and chosen for their deliciousness, personality, and the unique Portland experience they offer. Now, off you go on your gastro-walkabout — may you take only dignified bites and leave only crumbs. Find out more at bestplacestostuffyourfaces.com.

Lindsoe Clayworks

Welches, OR

We carry Lindsoe Clayworks because they offer beautiful and affordable dinnerware that is tough enough for everyday use. Artist Dulcie Lindsoe-Johansen has been making handmade stoneware out of her home studio in the Cascade Mountains since 1980. We enjoy her entire line, made with lead-free glazes, often featuring Northwest and natural themes. Her work makes us feel right at home.
