We all scream for ice cream, some louder than others

If you eat ice cream in Portland, it must be at the Salt and Straw, period.  If you happen by, they are open and there is not a long line, do not contemplate the time of day.  Ignore the fact that you just had a 2000 calorie lunch or that it will spoil your dinner, just go in and order.  If there is a line, stand in it, same rules above apply.  

Like many things it Portland, it is eccentric, organic, artisinal, sustainable, unique ice cream with flavor combinations that will defy your ice cream paradigms.   Given that, go out of your comfort zone and try goat cheese/marionberry/habanero ice cream or chocolate/blueberry/rice krispie treat (our choices) or one of their other flavors.  We never made it back to try the honey/balsamic/strawberry with cracked pepper which I regret.  I am confident you will find one you like as evidenced by the 100+ people who stand in line each night for a pricey scoop of yummy goodness.

I wish I had a picture to post, but we ate the subject before it was photographed.
