exploring portland + what we ate this weekend 😋

[@jamila9702]

Love "Just Tea" for Matcha

[@marisajomcdowell458]

The nachos and the birria tacos at Bit House Collective are my favorite in the city.

[@sarahcorradino9631]

Been binging your Portland content, we are moving to Beaverton in a month and are so excited to explore all the vegan/vegan friendly spots soon!

[@michellebeckham6402]

That bleu cheese is amazing like their feta crumbles!

[@Lyssajerfly]

Tea Bar’s matcha is really good!

[@devinruiz4509]

Portland Cà Phê has a really good oat matcha and other delicious drinks like an ube latte and diaspora chai (both oat). They're a Vietnamese women owned coffee roaster and specialize in single origin coffee grown in the Central Highlands of Vietnam. Plus, their onion tofu bahn mi is incredible and can be made vegan, too!

[@gb2372]

Awesome 👌 I'm heading to Portland next month to visit my brother and am a huge matcha snob. Thanks for sharing!

[@Ashes1024]

Love videos like these 🙌💯 you & Chris are awesome

[@virginiadonnelly1031]

Always enjoy your videos!

[@Aniketbabar]

Nice to see you guys!

[@Mfeltme]

I’ve been a subscriber since back when I use to live in Chicago. Now since my husband’s job brought us to Portland, I love seeing these kind of videos even more. Can’t wait to explore all of these spots!

[@Kathryn721]

Yay, I love when you show Portland spots. I live here and you two have helped us find new places! Thanks.

[@Ayocinday48]

Love your videos!!

[@julianag1762]

Good coffee has the best lavender oat matcha! Also Carina's bakery on Beaverton has amazing matcha

[@kalakumar8513]

Thanks for letting us tag along on your weekend fun! Thanks, also for telling us about the Good & Gather hot cocoa! I hope Jasmine is feeling better.

[@marge201]

That Portland video was fun. You two would be a blast to dine or cook with!

[@katherynshiflet5391]

Enjoy spending time with your days! Thanks.

[@kellywitty9553]

Love your PDX videos because it gives me a glimpse of home ;) I live overseas now so these videos give me great ideas for our visits back home! Hope you are feeling better Jasmine!!

[@justinmyser]

In sure you guys already know, but Lightlife sells a bacon version of that tempeh. It's what Whole Foods uses in their TTLA sandwich and it's very good!

[@bigtomatoes6735]

The Anthony green sweatshirt >>>>

[@jt9191]

Great idea for this vlog. So enjoyable to watch you guys. Thanks for all you hard work, ideas and sharing!! You guys rock!!

[@judytrinh]

thank you for another video ----- the vlogs are the best because we get to see you guys living life :) it's fun ❤️ ❤️❤️

[@melissaslappey6978]

Love these kinds of videos. Very fun and informal but still full of value :)

[@davidthescottishvegan]

A excellent what Chris & Jasmine ate during the weekend video. I thought I had my days confused because usually it's a Saturday SSV video's come out but then we wouldn't get to see what both of you ate during the weekend so it was worth waiting until the Monday. Love 🥰 the video and love 💕❤Jasmine & Chris. Sorry to hear that Jasmine hasn't been feeling her best, get well soon.

[@suupanoova]

I love Portland! Can’t wait to see what you guys do!

[@Miekzz]

you all seem like such fun people to hang out with ✌🏼

[@keniaherrera6008]

I love your vlogs they're so relaxing to just listen to and watch right now while I do my nails lol I love how cozy everything looks over there in Portland right now!

[@desiraer8727]

Hi! Do you have a video about your indoor greens garden?? I am moving to Portland and would love some tips on how to keep plants alive in the house! Thank you…

[@weirdunclebob]

With Chris's coffee, if you're having it indoors, then the ambient temperature would make it largely irrelevant to the temperature of your drinks. Also, in winter, you'd likely have a heater on making a cool drink seem like a good idea and vice versa! I drink hot coffee year round regardless of the temperature. I like iced coffee but hot coffee is just that much better :)

[@ChristinaReyn]

I love going into Portland and trying alll the vegan food! This video is very relatable 😅😅 thanks for sharing!

[@TerryJ950]

Hi, could you talk about the greens you have growing in your house? I tried to find a video about it, so if I missed it, could you link it? Thanks

[@AlexandraVicunaPerry]

I love the video and hope Jasmine feels better soon

[@Vanessa-fs7oz]

I moved out of portland a few months back but my favorite spots were Council Crest park, where you can see alllll the mountains. And the Hoyt Arboretum. It is probably so beautiful this time of year 🍃🍁🍂😍

[@breel4769]

I got married in council crest 😍 love that spot. Also moved from portland recently.

[@NakiasHideaway]

Where did you both move to or what areas do you recommend? Looking to relocate to the PNW next year.

[@Vanessa-fs7oz]

@@NakiasHideaway I was living in the alphabet district of Portland, in the NW corner of the city about halfway between downtown and Forest Park. I can't speak to other areas since I only lived there for 2yrs and most of that was during lockdown and I wasn't able to really explore the east side much, but I thought the location was ideal because I loved being close to the rose gardens and forest trails, and in walking distance of anything I could possibly need. 😍

[@NakiasHideaway]

@@Vanessa-fs7oz I'm not looking to live in Portland. Don't want to be in any major city. Did you leave Oregon?

[@Vanessa-fs7oz]

@@NakiasHideaway Ah yes, I did! I also was not a big city person, hence why I loved living near the forest. I am from the original Portland in Maine, and I was missing the small coastal city feel, really missed the ocean. But also did not want to go back to harsh Maine winters. So we chose Wilmington, NC - we were missing the Atlantic so drove all the way back east. I really miss the PNW though because those old forests and cascades were beyond beautiful🏞

[@bushnellentertainment5759]

hope u feel better. thanks for sharing cant wait to look up sharma! I learned something new!! also gonna try your vbacon marinade!!

[@probowler2000]

used to go to burger patch in sacramento all the time! its so good. very sick shirt and great video !! i live in indiana now but i miss portland every day

[@princessb26]

When I visited Portland I went to Petunias pastries and pies and it is by far the best dessert I have ever had!

[@Kathryn721]

OMG can you please tell us about your indoor garden?! Did you make that or buy it somewhere?

[@therossfam4238]

You guys need to get off the griddle! It’s an all vegan breakfast place and it’s amazing 10/10

[@hopegold883]

Loved the “endive” song. You didn’t vlog yourselves drinking and driving, did you?

[@wingvilma8254]

Been watching your videos for a while now, but just recently moved to Portland! Excited to get to check some of these places out. Also .. unrelated this video but I’m so sad that Shady Pines is closing! 😭

[@Sweetsimplevegan]

Omg we had no idea!! :/

[@MimiChristopher]

You both have the kindest eyes

[@rebeccahargis9061]

Rivermaiden in Vancouver has great matcha drinks.

[@theresaspears3894]

I hope you feel better Jasmine 🙂

[@saraswimeley8739]

I got matcha at Good Coffee’s Richmond location and it was very good and they were super nice.

[@ninadolgin]

I 2nd Good Coffee! Got a lavender matcha w/ oat milk that was fantastic.

[@margarett_b]

1:02 Honestly, probably the best part of having some friends from another city visit: having to actually explore your own city in terms of activities, architecture, culture or food! Otherwise, the motivation is usually too slow, right? :P

[@lindsaytoussaint]

Record that Endive remix!! And the other one too. It can be a whole plant remix album 😂

[@Emmers1983]

We're gonna be visiting Portland next week! It's been a while...can't wait to get some delicious food! I'm so tired of the few options we have here in Spokane.

[@emilypinto8541]

I finally got to check out Plant Based Papi a week ago & their birria tacos were everything I imagined them to be 🤤🌮 Even my parents (who are non-vegan) couldn’t believe how good everything tasted!

[@SuperFosterMom]

Have you actually been to bar harbor? I LOVE Maine

[@felinefineable]

Yay! Thank you! I’ve been wondering if there was a vegan blue cheese out there somewhere. Now I know what to lol for. I miss blue cheese.

[@allyb.7194]

Tea Bar SE (off Division and 43rd) has an intense matcha!

[@allyb.7194]

Also, Baby Ketten Klub is an all-vegan karaoke bar! It's right underneath Rudy's Pizza on Powell, which also has a lottttt of vegan pizza options.

[@vduback]

Where did you find the bleu cheese? I’ve been looking high and low in the Portland area. Help!!

[@debbiebrabo6237]

Hope Jasmine feels better soon. ❤️

[@stephaniedion]

I thought you were going to Vancouver Canada for your coffee, and I was like this make no sense to cross the border for coffee. Then I realized while exploring on Google maps that there was a city called vancouver 15 min away from Portland haha

[@cherryberryyyyyyy]

Same I was confused lol

[@MotherCoconuts811]

I'm so jealous of all the leaves your trees still have 😭

[@HowToCuisine]

Can't wait to discover Portland too! 😘

[@GreenVegan816]

Love that Bar Harbor, Maine sweatshirt!

[@23Bentley45]

What vegan feta did you use? Love your videos. Hopefully Jasmine will feel better soon

[@mackennagrey]

Looks like it was the Follow Your Heart feta crumbles 😊

[@irisrivas-nieves9511]

Hope Jasmine feels better!

[@maryellenbunce7751]

How do you make your matcha? I want to like it but am pretty sure I am not making it properly

[@brynneworley2762]

Smith Tea makes the best matcha latte I've ever had.

[@blessingplant]

Agreed. Smith is quite good.

[@latanyamikell5731]

I so much love Hot chocolate I will try it out ❤️ everything else to

[@alynawatersmusic]

I take Ritual as well and love their transparency. I don’t usually like subscriptions but this one helps me remember to take my vitamins. 👍🏻👏🏻 You still use your garden thingy! 😍

[@nebraskafrankcourtny]

Wow!!! Thanks for this!!! 👍😊💕💕😋😋

[@breel4769]

If you haven’t gone to Queen of Sheba on MLK you MUST. They have a vegan platter that is 👌🏼👌🏼👌🏼

[@blessingplant]

Ooh, that looks good🤤 We’re gonna have to try!

[@brew2951]

Try vegan pizza in Portland. I found it extremely hard to find vegan pizza in Portland. I go to Hot Lips Pizza.

[@Sweetsimplevegan]

24th and meatballs has the best vegan pizza in Portland! Also boxcar, baby blue, and Rudy’s are all great.

@@Sweetsimplevegan It really is beautiful! Let me know if you visit again! I have some great vegan recommendations for you guys.

[@yoasali7952]

So weird my restrictive setting didn't let me play the video. I had to change my settings for this video.

[@blessingplant]

Firstly hope Jasmine is feeling better, and has a swift smooth recovery🌬💜 Keeper coffee co in the SE has some good matcha and is really cute. And if u haven’t tried mitate, its our new favorite vegan sushi spot, which even inspired our latest video. Japanese Garden is also highly recommended. I think outside of Japan, it may be the best✨

[@cklemm9139]

Portland looked so dreary, and not just because of the weather. I'm hopeful that we can come back, but it's going to be a long road.

[@breel4769]

It’s definitely not what it used to be. I moved away a few years ago and went back to visit family about a month ago and it was just pretty depressing.

[@m.s.6061]

Are you guys not able to stand up straight?.............while eating at your kitchen counter?

[@ConsciousChris]

It’s physically impossible……………..

[@m.s.6061]

@@ConsciousChris it annoying, sarcastic answer is to o..........way to represent dudes....

[@ConsciousChris]

@@m.s.6061 just matching the vibe with your comment. In all honesty, leaning over is the best way for us to film where you can see what we are eating and our heads don’t get cut off without the camera being too far away.

[@mackennagrey]

@@ConsciousChris don't sweat it man. People will always find stuff to complain about 🙄 you guys are doing great and so many of us love your videos! 💕
