Walkable Vegan Food Scene
Portland is full of amazing vegan options and many of them are within walking distance. I've listed a few of my favorites.
It's worth a trip to Portland just to visit Missionary Chocolates! A short walk from the house, this 100% vegan, naturopath owned business offers dozens of creative and seasonal flavors. They are famous for their meyer lemon truffle (amazing!), I also love the salted pinot noir, anise, and blood orange cardamom. And don't worry, they ship!
