Higgins - Review - Downtown - Portland, OR - The Infatuation

"Higgins was doing nose-to-tail cooking, housemade charcuterie, and obsessive local sourcing back when everyone else was still adding sun-dried tomatoes to everything in the ’90s. This downtown institution (and its more casual bar) is still a pre-theater go-to, serving things like radiatore with Oregon razor clams and artichokes and nightly specials featuring whatever local beef or seafood they scored that day. But you could just roll in with a few friends, order the grand charcuterie platter—a glorious spread of terrines, rillettes, cured meats, cheeses, and enough pickled things to fill a pantry—and call it a night." - Krista Garcia
