The Cocktail Heatmap: Where to Drink Right Now in Portland

"The bartenders at this spot from Gabbiano’s co-owners David Sigal, Blake Foster, and Heather Wallberg promise “the dirtiest martini in town,” which they’re certainly able to deliver on. Choose from a dry martini featuring olive oil-washed gin or vodka; step it up a notch with the dirty, which includes Italian-spiced olive brine and a pimento olive; or go all out with the grimy, an umami bomb packing an anchovy-and-parmesan-infused olive brine, anchovy, and a blue cheese olive. Fans of Gabbiano’s fun mozzarella stick shots will be similarly delighted by the jalapeno popper arancini, a smart mashup of the two appetizers. Slushie aficionados will be pleasantly surprised with Take Two’s plays on a strawberry margarita and a pina colada, with the former getting a hit of acidity from balsamic vinegar and the latter zhushed up with sesame and chocolate." - Rebecca Roland, Janey Wong, Eater Staff
