Woohoo! A Pix is headed to my hood!
"Add brewery buds Jerry Fechter and Don Younger to the list of restaurant and bar owners putting down roots in North Portland. Fechter and Younger, who own the New Old Lompoc and Southeast Division Street upstart the Hedge House, will open a new brewery/distillery in an old warehouse on the corner of North Williams Avenue and Failing Street this fall. Even better, the pair is toying with the fate-tempting idea of calling the space Failing Williams. The new bar will share the roomy space with its current Division Street neighbor, Pix Pātisserie. Pix's Cheryl Wakerhauser is launching a second Pix branch that she's terming a French-style "chocolate laboratory" featuring white lab coats and good-quality cognacs in August. Holy hell, why don't we just move Pioneer Courthouse Square to NoPo right now and make the migration complete?"
And, there's a new fish and chips place to try on Alberta, called Halibut's.
