Portland’s Best Spot for Breakfast has Giant Sized Portions of Everything

I was in Portland over the weekend. Portland has no lack of options when it comes to places to eat, both indoor, outdoor and their fabulous food trucks, but when I'm thinking about going out for breakfast there's only one place that's on my mind. After you visit there, yourself, it'll be top of your mind, too.

This place is called Gravy. You can find Gravy on Mississippi Ave. in Portland.

I went there for the first time with a couple of friends back in October of last year. I've been waiting oh-so-patiently to make my return to try other items on the menu. It was worth the wait.

Let's start with the french toast. This may as well be a loaf of bread.

Not just chicken fried steak, but this is such a thick cut that it's served medium rare (or to your liking). I never once though a chicken fried steak could be medium rare but here we are.

If you have kids, no worries. They also have fun items like these banana chocolate chip pancakes.

Their Monte Cristo is served open face and that's fine by me as there's no way I could eat this in sandwich-form.

And one of the items they pride themselves on is their oatmeal. You wouldn't think much of going out to eat and just getting something you can make at home so easily but their oatmeal is out of this world. This one happens to be their banana and pecan with an almost toasted 'creme brule' style sugar gloss on top. Amazing.

Next time you're in Portland, Gravy is the place to be!
