The Portage
A neatly appointed gastropub with antique mirrors that reflect the interior's velvety Valentine-y color scheme, TP's serving up starters like goat cheese-stuffed bacon-wrapped dates, house-cut duck fat fries, and tempura green beans to whet appetites before mains of caramelized onion-topped Kobe burgers, and a white wine/dijon mustard sauced all-natural bone-in pork chop, though isn't it always natural to pork with a bone in?
