Good food and a hip crowd at Le Bistro Montage y _______ ERINNLERTEN Staff Writer it »5 3 / Le Bistro Montage, located at 301 Morrison St., offers Cajun cuisine in a French bistro atmosphere. Le Bistro Montage opened un der the Morrison Bridge in 1992 and immediately became a hipster hotspot, the place for clubhoppers to refuel on cheap after-hours grub. A more main stream crowd now rubs elbows with the hipsters, but Montage remains as cool as ever. Voted one of Portland’s best restaurants every year since its start in 1992, including “Best Restaurant of the Year” for 1993 in The Willamette Week’s Restau rant Guide, Montage continues to bring in people from all over Portland. Combining French-bis tro atmosphere with down-home Cajun cookin’, you can eat your Hrs: Mon.-Thurs.-7a.m.-6:30p.m.; Fri.- 7a.m.-2p.m; Sat-8:30a.m.-10:30p.m. Wednesdav-B udget: Tostada w/ rice Special: Carne asada w/ beans & rice Grill: Grilled chicken quesadilla__________ Thursday- Budget: 4" submarine & sandwich w/ potato chips Special?

Walk in the door (and there’s usually a line), and it may WaZ/c appear that ev eryone knows each other. They don’t, or at least they didn’t; The scene inside Montage is in complete con trast to the empty and quiet street scene outside. You definitely feel like you are entering an oasis, a hidden club for scenesters. But because it’s Portland, because the town is fundamentally nice and egalitarian, there’s no attitude. Ev eryone is welcome to the party. Tables are shared — in fact, one wall is lined with a single, seem ingly mile-long table. This is the place to eavesdrop on your neigh- bors’ conversations. Eating at Montage is more like a night at the theater than a culinary outing. Along with being seated at a long table with total strangers, no res ervations or credit cards are ac cepted, and service can be sassy and sly. The Cajun-inspired cuisine here can be uneven, so stick to the basics. Start with an order of oyster or mussel shooters and try not to be embarrassed when your server bellows the order to the kitchen. Or try the Cajun- seared gator bites, which are spicy and ten der. Jambalaya comes in many variations, in cluding ones with scallops, frog legs, catfish, mussels, craw fish, rock shrimp, or andouille sau sage. One of the best (and cheapest) items on the menu is the mac and cheese, which comes in flavors like green-basil pesto mac, Spam spicy mac,and hamand smoked cheddar mac. Leftovers, which are inevi table, arrive wrapped in tinfoil, cleverly sculpted in the shapes of crabs, swans, flowers or a three-foot-high medieval sword. Le Bistro Montage is located at 301 SE Morrison St. Portland; Phone: (503) 234-1324. Hours: Mon.- Thu. 11 a.m.-2p.m.and6p.m.-2a.m.; Fri. 11 a.m.-2 p.m. and 6 p.m.-4 a.m.; Sat. 6 p.m.-4 a.m.; Sun. 6 p.m.-2 a.m. Be sure to bring cash because no credit cards are accepted, and Mon tage charges $2 touse its ATM ma chine. in the door and it may appear that everyone knows each other. ■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■ ■ ■ ■ ■ ■ ■ Flash-custom-jewelry State Certified and Licensed Guaranteed Quality Work Hospital Sterilization Traditional, New School, Custom Star Tattoo and Body piercing (503) 653-5679 ■ 15190 S.E.
