Kir
Portland, Oregon
Don't expect to be overwhelmed by the wine list at Kir. We're not really sure the intimate, impeccably decorated venue could even provide space for such a thing. But that's no bother, as the selection — which changes daily and focuses on European and ecclectic vintages — is almost always excellent. Should you find yourself wanting to try several glasses — or are just looking for something to pair your glass with — the equally economic menu of small plates is an ideal place to look, offering treats like roasted pistachios, summer squash and leek soup, and cider-braised pork belly.
