For a limited time, the bistro is hosting “Toss Up Tuesdays.” At the end of your sumptuous meal, just tell the waiter “heads or tails” and he’ll flip a coin. If you call it right, the meal is FREE! (Except for drinks and the waiter’s tip, of course!)

This February, do something that’s not only free and fun with your kids, but something that’s classically unique to Portland: storytime with the Oregon Symphony.

Oregon Symphony Free Portland Storytime

Every Wednesday in February, 3 – 4 pm, an Oregon Symphony musician visits the Capitol Hill Library, 10723 S.W. Capitol Highway, Portland, OR, for an interactive and musical storytime. Kids get to hear orchestral music for free and to learn about a particular symphony instrument that day. Plus storytime and a hands-on musical craft.

Free tickets for seating are available 30 minutes prior to the program, so get there early since space in limited.
