P1020443We did manage to venture out of Sunriver a few times. Each time we left we headed over to Bend, Oregon.  We ate at three of the restaurants there. The only ones worth mentioning are this one Deschutes Brewery and Spork.

Boy was the food here good, but the wait for a table was an hour!  Which wasn’t as bad as our disappearing waitress! I can see after having the food why people are willing to wait so long to get in. I literally cannot wait to eat here again.
