Ok Oregoners, I'll be in Portland for 2 days this May. What should

Mrs FSogol and I should do?

I know about Powells Books and yes, we are both Foodies. What food spots, breweries, and sites should we not miss? What should we see and do? Thanks in advance.

Get into the local craft brews.
Try some legal edibles. Then go to Voodoo...

Every town has a brewery that is considered great, but there usually a smaller quirky brewery that is even better.

It sounds exactly like "organ".

Next, be sure to say Will-AAAA-met river, not WIL-a-met river.

After that, be sure to refer to Oregonians, not Oregoners.

Beyond that, as resident of Eugene, I only go to Portland to visit Powell's, so I have no idea what else the town might have to offer that can't already be found in Eugene.
