The Best Restaurants, Bars, and Cafes Near Ladd’s Addition in Portland | Eater Portland

"With slow-cooked dishes unlocking layers of subtle flavor and texture — not to mention an unrivaled arsenal of spices — Indian cooking is among the most organically suited to vegetarian dining. Just across Hawthorne from Ladd’s Addition, Maruti has been offering inner Southeast locals lovingly prepared north Indian dishes for more than six years. Roughly half the dishes use dairy-based ghee or paneer, while the rest are entirely vegan. A creative cocktail menu is highlighted by the Maruti Old Fashioned, mixed with Amrut, India’s first single-malt whiskey." - Nathan Williams
