Portland's Bread & Ink Cafe

Bread and Ink Cafe

Bread and Ink has been around for years and has been popular with both locals and tourists for many years.  Don't be fooled by the casual easy going atmosphere of the restaurant.  The stark white interior is balanced by interesting art that hangs on the interior walls of the restaurant.  Comfortable green leather chairs make it easy to enjoy a leisurely meal and conversation.

The menu is eclectic offering a wide range of choices. From Risotto and ravioli, grilled seafood to Vietnamese spring rolls. One of their signature dishes on the menu is cheese blintzes, which are served at lunch, dinner, and on Sunday.  The blintzes come as a threesome: tender crepe pillows filled with ricotta cheese, accompanied by sour cream and raspberry jam.  Don't forget to save room for dessert, they are rich and worth ordering. Try the Sicilian cassata--ricotta-filled lemon pound cake slathered with chocolate ganache.
