I recently had the pleasure of visiting Papa Haydn, a delightful spot in Portland that was recommended by some local friends. The moment I stepped in, I was greeted by a warm, bistro-like vibe, filled with natural light and an eclectic menu that piqued my curiosity. The staff were incredibly friendly and welcoming, adding to the overall pleasant experience.
The food was nothing short of amazing. I was particularly taken by the Croque Monsieur, which was unlike any I've had in France, but delicious nonetheless. The French Onion Soup was another standout, leaving a lasting impression. But the real stars of the show were the desserts. The Buche de Noel and Maple Gingerbread Torte were smooth, delicious, and baked to perfection. The balance of moisture and density in the cakes was just right.
Despite a bit of a wait for our food, the comfortable environment made it a non-issue. The only downside was that the Triple Chocolate Cake seemed to have shrunk in size and was missing the ganache. However, the overall experience was so incredible that I'm already looking forward to my next visit. If you're in the area, Papa Haydn is a must-visit, especially for special occasions. Just be prepared to leave wanting more!
