The Urban Farmer @ The Nines Hotel

The Nines is a luxury hotel in the heart of downtown Portland.  It houses two restaurants – Departure (modern Asian fare) and The Urban Farmer (a modern steakhouse).  As part of Raswan’s last hurrah in Oregon, we had lunch at the Urban Farmer, an atrium restaurant with a seven-story skylight.  Check out this link for even more beautiful pictures inside the restaurant.  I loved the urban farmhouse feel.

    Thanks! That was very thoughtful of you. Things are well, but I’m SO busy. It’s sad to say, but I have no time to update, except for quick Twitter updates. Thanks for sticking around. I hope things are well in your part of the world.
