Page 26 Portland Observer Section II Thursday, June 29. 1978 down and your mind relax this small but tastefully decorated establishment will be just right for you. Continuous recorded jazz is piped to each and every coiner of the Opus. The selections are varied from old to new and this sets the tone for a very casual, relaxing time that can be enhanced with a glass or bottle of wine, or a frothy glass of beer. The Jazz de Opus at times can be crowded and at others it seems the most appropriate place for friends and loners to gather. The comfortable seating is surrounded by wooden walls and hanging pictures reminiscent of “ West Coast Modern” circa 1955. The atmosphere is heightened by the lack of bnght lights and the homey feeling generated by the circular fireplace and bean bag chairs that dominate the back half of the Opus. For those who wish to snack, salads and sandwiches are available, but it’s the relaxing atmosphere that makes Jazz de Opus a hit. Try it after a hard day of haggling, debating and men tal strain, you’ll find yourself displaced in space and time by a smooth cordiality and lack of crassness that permeates this haven for the weary. Jazz de Opus, 33 N.W. 2nd. 222-6077. Hours 11:00 a.m. to 2:00 a.m., Monday through Saturday, 4:00 p.m. to 2:00 a.m., Sunday. Wine and beer — moderate. No credit cards. Service • • — Food •*.

If your taste runs to the exotic and creative Chuck’s will furnish you with an ample supply of both. Amidst the tropical fish and ferns one may glimpse the stars of the Portland Trailblazers, or members of the Civic Theatre vainly trying to engulf one of the thickest hamburgers in town. Or delicately following a bite of steak dijon with a sip of wine. The dress is casual, the service slow, but cordial, the food is good enough to have a crowd of regulars who continue to come back time after time. The steak dijon is to be recommended, the chicken terriyaki avoided, unless you enjoy dry chicken as an en tree. There’s a lot of movement in Chuck’s, it’s a busy place, but the movement always seems appropriate for this type of restaurant. ■ fai FLVINS. l> a y iH 6 .l> » CM M i WSCATTON !
