My newly remodled Whole Foods has everything but that cafeteria-they do have an indoor/outdot dining area for goodies from the deli though.

It's a very dangerous place for Mr.R5
:-,
Says on their website that new store for Portland is at NE Sandy Blvd -
40,020 sq.ft. Guess I'll have to fly up and go shopping with mms and Scarlett.
:)
and Kal's new store is at the Rosevile and Galleria Parkways 55,00 sq.st.

r5!>:D<

55k sf!!!! Wow. I better go get $55,000 out of savings because I usually allow $1/sf for grocery shopping. :-d

R5--Oh, no...we will take you to the Bridgeport one when it opens. The shopping all around it is wonderful. I will be there tomorrow morning...me and about a million other people, lol!

Kal-tooooo funny, MrR5 will laugh aloud and then agree - tho'Whole Foods might require $2 sq.ft. !

mms - that's the way way WE watch the fireworks, too ! or FOGworks as we call them in these parts.

sks,
Pup is a Standard Poodle. His head won't even fit in my bag :)
BTilke, go to Hoyt real estate. com and look at the lofts for sale..unless it will make you too sad :)
My FodorFriend elaine, sent me a Bark in the Park a gift, or she sent it to Pup, but he still has trouble reading the big words..I am amazed at how pup friendly Portland is!
Can't wait to be there :D

You're right beachbum...I was thinking that Zupans was a Whole Foods. I do like the Whole foods on Couch too.. my mom in law lives nearby on NW Davis and has switched from Fred Meyer to WF.

I just like New Seasons Markets even better!

You Portland Guys got it soooo good- even your Safeway is better than ours! And no sales tax...

As an investment, it would have been great, but as a home to live in, not so much. There was no yard for OUR pup and when you live in one of those open space, high ceiling lofts, where on earth do you go to escape a loudly snoring husband? ;-)

Scarlett Jun 21st, 2005 02:23 PM

BTilke, that is definitely something to think about!
Pup is going to have a big shock, he has gotten so used to running free in his big yard, but he is so social, I think, like me, he will love being in the city again with lots of people and other pups.

We are getting estimates from movers..we might have to LIVE at the 5th Avenue Suites for 7 - 15 days waiting for the delivery of our house LOL
What a shame, Pup and the Yankee & I will suffer through the trauma of living in a 4* hotel for a couple of weeks :D ((&))

Wouldn't that just be AWFUL, Scarlett??

Of course, since it would be sooo very awful, you know the movers will get your stuff there early. Never fails!
