i wanted to suggest:
Khun Pic's Bahn Thai
(503) 235-1610
3429 SE Belmont St
Portland, OR 97214
i don't think they have their own web page, but there are numerous reviews
online, which generally amount to praising the food despite the *slow* service,
which largely mirrors my experience. the long wait gives plenty of time for
conversation, right?
Hours are Tue-Sat, 6-9pm, and it would be wise to make a reservation.
live well,
vagrant
