Portland's best kept culinary secret

Busy day, opera in a.m. and musical dinner theater in p.m. The dinner theater at Clark College in Vancouver, which we've been going to annually for over 20 years, is the best kept culinary secret in the area. Dinner is a gourmet buffet made by students in the college's culinary program and it is amazing. The desserts alone are worth many times the ticket price but this a full multi-course buffet in which students try to outdo one another, so it is an extraordinary feast. Dinner comes before the play so you can even skip but we never do, college musicals are usually fun. But it's the food that sets this extravaganza apart. Happens only once a year, usually in late winter term. An absolutely amazing feast put on by the culinary students!

LATER. Alas, I'm told this is now catered due to school budget cuts. Another gem comes to an end.
