Try the New Portland Lunches at Masala Lab, Oma’s Hideaway, and Takibi - Eater Portland

"In October, Oma’s owners Thomas and Mariah Pisha-Duffly took their team on a trip to Singapore, where they delved into the country’s cuisine and took cooking classes. The trip also provided inspiration for a new lunch menu, which stays true to the restaurant’s spirit of highlighting Malaysian, Singaporean, and Indonesian street food as well as Chinese barbecue. Dinner mainstays such as wonton mee and Oma’s corn fritters will make their way to the lunch menu, but midday diners should beeline for the new spicy Katong laksa, a hard-to-find-in-Portland noodle soup ideal for winter days. Thomas Pisha-Duffly has also dreamed up a playful sandwich menu, which will include a Filet-O-Fishball sandwich and a vegan roti wrap with green pea and mint fritters, cumin beet raita, and herb chutney. Lunch starts on November 19 and will be available on weekends from 11 a.m. to 3 p.m. The restaurant will take walk-ins and reservations." - Janey Wong
