Best Evers: Leigh Feldman, Events Producer and Advertising Specialist

Editor’s Note: As we set up shop in cities across the country, we wanted to bring some local flavor to the blog by asking different local experts about their city’s favorite spots. Below, our Portland, Oregon, community manager Maria sits down with Leigh Feldman to discuss Leigh’s Portland Best Evers. Be sure to share your faves in the comments below.

Maybe you follow Leigh Feldman on Twitter, or subscribe to his LifeisaParty newsletter. Or maybe you’ve met Leigh at one if his monthly events (every Saturday for Massive at The Crown Room or every first Friday for Hot Mess at Tube).

We grabbed lunch to chat about the question everybody asks: What are Leigh’s favorite Portland places? When he’s not busy getting the party started, Leigh loves enjoying great food, playing soccer and practicing Muay Thai. Here are the places that Leigh loves and why:

• Element Restaurant & Lounge - Leigh loves the sound and atmosphere. And this is coming from an expert.
• Pok Pok - The fish sauce wings and catfish are not to be missed!
• Andina - According to Leigh, Andina’s “Sexy Woman” is the best cocktail in Portland.
• Saburo's Sushi House Restaurant - Two words: huge and tasty.
• Tugboat Brewing Co. - One of his favorite happy hour destinations and on-tap selections.
• Portland Thai Boxing - Keeps him fit and focused.
• Buffalo Exchange - Leigh’s best Buffalo Exchange score was a limited edition pair of Nike shoes, retailing at about $400.
