Oma's Hideaway is a charming place, and the staff is fantastic and attentive. It strides the line between relaxed dining and funky dive with their disco lighting. That is a big plus, in my opinion, because good food and stuffy decor need not be synonymous.
On to the dishes, which were delicious overall with modest criticism. It's dumpling week in Portland, and they had one featured on the menu: Buffalo Shrimp Dumplings, crispy shrimp & pork siu mai, buffalo chili crisp, miso blue cheese, pickled celery & radish herb salad. I added their description, because it's a nicely inventive combination that may not be on the the web site when you read this. They were absolutely yummy, though the wrapper does get a little lost in the mix. I'd say they had more the mouthfeel of one of the best meatballs I've had. I'd get them again.
Speaking of repeats, get the roti. Definitely get the roti. I have no words, and the dipping curry sauce makes them that much better. So very very good.
From there, my wife got the Wonton Mee, a great combo of flavors, though probably more my style with all the pickled veggies in it. The dish was very rich and some alcohol is recommended to accompany it.
I got the game hen, which had a wonderful flavor. The slaw and sauce that came with it was great, though I ordered an additional side of slaw because I absolutely needed more fresh veggies to balance the richness of the hen. My only disappointment was the dryness of the breast meat. The server described the cooking method, smoke then fry, as resulting in juicy meat. They preemptively gave use some corn fritters, that were delicious, perhaps because they may have heard me mention the meat dryness out loud. Very kind, regardless of the reason.
They suggested coconut rice to go with the game hen, and I would as well, a fantastic accompaniment.
I got the Good Luck Babe, a Negroni-like cocktail with a coconut twist, very tasty. My wife's Lambrusco unfortunately was flat, but still drinkable.
