Here are some ways to eat and drink well this weekend:

🍞 Best Bakeries

Little T Baker has the best sandwich bread around. Nuvrei has an extraordinary flourless, chocolate-chip walnut cookie. Sebastiano’s cannoli are a must-try. Check out Oyatsupan for its Japanese milk bread. Those spots are all among Portland Monthly’s picks for best bakeries in the area. [Portland Monthly]

  • Speaking of: Sebastiano’s, formerly in Montavilla, has moved to Sellwood. They now have a small market, longer hours (including for breakfast), and indoor seating. [Portland Monthly]

🌶️ Hottest March Restaurants

Eater Portland’s running list of the hottest new restaurants now includes Le Clown, a French popup. Other tasty options include Orange & Blossom Patisserie, Chem Gio at Mosaic Taphouse, and Pasar. [Eater Portland]

☀️ Outdoor Patios

The weather is going to be nice this weekend, maybe even warm enough to grab a drink or a meal outside:
