Grilled cheese genius

After getting enjoying my free beer while getting my haircut at Bishop's, I was riding home and passed a new establishment on the corner of 11th & Alberta.  It's called The Grilled Cheese Grill and after a first visit I recommend it highly.  The premise is simple: take an empty lot across the street from the Alberta Street Public House.  Put in an Airstream trailer for cooking and order taking.  Add an old school bus with a new paint job and renovate it to put in booths.  Put in about 12 picnic tables to take advantage of the coming nice weather.  Then keep the menu simple with a variety of grilled cheese sandwiches and ala carte toppings that can be added.  I had 'The Jersey,' which is swiss cheese and mushrooms grilled just right on some tasty rye bread.  This place fits the quirky-ness of Alberta (and Portland) perfectly, and hopefully will be a big hit during the summer months when a grilled cheese sandwich and a cold drink on a warm summer day sounds just about right.
