3 Best Day Trips from Portland, OR | Condé Nast Traveler
"Don’t be surprised if you’re overcome by a bit of sensory overload when walking into this hugely popular frozen treat shop . The walls are hot pink and neon green, with what looks like chocolate dripping from the edge of the ceiling. The menu is a series of similarly photo-heavy posters arranged around the walls. It’s hard to wrap your head around all the options—there are just so many, from ice cream to monstrous bowls of chile-topped fruit salad and every combination in between—but those visual clues do come in handy when trying to decide. The palatas come in an array of flavors ranging from classic (strawberry), to creative (rice pudding), to less common in the U.S. (nanche, which is a sour-sweet tropical fruit). The ice cream selection is similar. Do you want to play it safe with cookies and cream? Or do you want to be a bit more adventurous and go for the smoked milk, cheese curd, or rose petal?" - Danielle Centoni
