26 Cafe: A Celebration of Portland History
A childhood portrait of Ed Wampler, who once owned a restaurant supply company in NW Portland, overlooks the counter of his granddaughter’s elegant neighborhood cafe. Naomi Diallo learned the restaurant business from him and from her father, Roger Wampler, who owns Ron’s Restaurant on SE 82nd Ave, but it was three months spent in Italy that inspired her to open a European-style cafe, serving coffee, beer, wine, and pastries.

Pollard is a Brand Ambassador for the Curb app and also does freelance social media and videography. She also runs an online vintage shop, Helen May Vintage, with her aunt.
Water Your New Trees!
Did you plant new trees this past fall or spring? Good job! Now, make sure they get watered. As you have probably noticed it has been an unusually dry spring. It has been great for people and outdoor activities, however not so great for thirsty young trees. Trees that were planted recently need water and Mother Nature is just not helping this year.

Eliot’s Best Patios
As dry, sunny days become more frequent, Portlanders begin to think about how we can make the most of these few glorious months before the dark, damp weather turns us into recluses once again. Good news if you live in Eliot or just pass through on a regular basis. Our neighborhood has some great patios where you can bask in the sun (or hide from it in the shade while still smelling the fresh air). We asked you to name your favorite patio in the neighborhood and here are the results! We planned to publish the top three, but we had a tie for second place, so here are the four best patios in Eliot!
