Another great tasty venue that Edible Skinny got to
encounter while in Portland is the bohemian bistro Crush Bar, and also
the venue for the fantastic #StripForPP event produced by Workin’ The Tease that I had a hand in producing…!
With a slogan professing, “everybody is a little bit
queer; everyone is welcome," Crush Bar is a gay owned and operated,
restaurant/bar/event space that welcomes every one of every sexual
association. Hosting a broad clientele
of neighborhood friends (seriously for being a gay bar half the people in it
were straight as an arrow...), burlesque fans (they do five, read it five, monthly
shows in the back room), and travelers it’s the perfect place of a $6 cocktail
(most definitely not LA prices!!!) along with a super vegetarian friendly late
night snack menu. 
While there I feasted post show on their delightful
Deviled Eggs with house-made picked vegetables (for once again the ridiculously
inexpensive price of $5.00….). And I was
in heaven with their vegetarian Bombay Poutine made with sweet potato fries with
vegan, gluten-free curry gravy and Indian paneer cheese (another thing that
would have been twice its $6 price tag in Los Angeles…).
So if you’ve got a hankering for tasty cocktail
concoctions, vegan poutine, and a location that doesn’t care if you’re gay or straight
as long as you celebrate!, Crush Bar should be your Portland watering hole of
choice!
