The Best Restaurants to Eat and Drink Around the Buckman Neighborhood in Portland, Oregon | Eater Portland
"Olympia Provisions has been smoking and salting European-style cured meats since 2009, setting the standard for what Portlanders believe real salami should taste like. Although the business’s five establishments showcase varying expressions of thoughtfully sourced charcuterie, chef Matthew Jarrell has the benefit of grabbing fresh stock from the brand’s own smokehouses for the flagship warehouse restaurant. Open for brunch through dinner, all menus at this location offer charcuterie boards, which are divided by countries where the meat originates. Sandwiches like the Italian Grinder (mortadella, capicola, salami) and the Randy (sweetheart ham, apples, blue cheese, hazelnuts) further emphasize house-made meats, while plates of braised short ribs, steak tartare, and Dungeness crab omelets reflect a more rustic, traditional way of European dining." - Katrina Yentch
