The charcuterie list shares the impressive salumi and sausages with the original Olympia Provisions in industrial Southeast, but the Northwest Portland branch is a different animal, with its own feel and flavors. Nibble a small and addictive repertoire of European and American dishes, pickled bites, seasonal soups, and salads. Laid-back entrées include rotisserie chicken, plump and juicy with crackling golden skin or a savory German pancake with foraged mushrooms. The best dessert plays off OP’s charcuterie obsession: a bittersweet chocolate “salami,” pockmarked with cookie crumbs, pistachios, and orange zest, then coated in powdered sugar to emulate the meaty version.
