f ever there was a recipe for seduction, food is
certainly a key ingredient. And what better
food to entice than dessert—the grand finale,
the climax of all great meals. Impress your date
(or hell, seduce yourself!) with the sweet gems
these Southeast cafes have to offer.

& fresh juices
P O R T LA N D P R IC E S IN STEA D OF C H IC A G O 'S
*•.:?•••
Cafe Castagna • 1758 SJL Hawthorne Bhrd.
he “daughter” of next-door Castagna, this
fine bistro boasts the same high-quality
food of its foremother. Top off a gourmet
hamburger and fries or an authentic Caesar
salad with the many pleasing desserts offered.
For you chocolate fiends, there is always a tone
to win you over; if it’s fruit that floats your
boat, the homemade and seasonal sorbets can’t
he heat. But the real treat at the cafe is the
affogato, a simple hut elegant treat that melts
in your mouth. Here it’s a homemade vanilla
gelato topped with hot espresso. It’s that sim
ple. Is it a food? A drink? Call it what you
want, hut don’t miss this bittersweet, hot/cold
combo that truly is the champagne of all
desserts.
Pied Cow • 3244 S.E. Belmont SL
he Pied Cow is a veritable Portland
landmark. During the spring and summer,
i
this old home-tumed-cafe is a bohemian
paradise. Enjoy the secluded garden area for a
late-night cheese plate, a cup of tea or the
newest treat—a Turkish water pipe served with
fruit-flavored tobacco. Mead, port and other
dessert wines complement the extensive dessert
selection of ice cream, cakes and tarts. The real
standout here is the warm gingerbread cake.
While many are too spicy and dry, the Pied
Cow’s version is moist, mild and absolutely to
die for. Served with fresh whipped cream, this
is what 1 call heaven on earth.
T
Stumptown Coffee • 3356 S.L Belmont SL
he main attraction at this Belmont haunt
is obviously coffee. But don’t ignore the
vegan German chocolate cake sitting on
the counter as you pay. The vegans have found
the secret to moist cakes (is it applesauce?),
and this chocolate, caramel and coconut
extravaganza is the perfect sidekick to the best
cup of joe you will ever have. You’ll he lucky if
you find a seat here, so I suggest getting your
cake to go. Whether you are indulging yourself
with an afternoon work break, rounding out a
nice home-cooked dinner or curling up to
watch Six Feet Under, Stumptown’s German
chocolate is your best friend.
