WITH A LITTLE HELP FROM HER FRIENDS - Owner Rhonda Jo Kaer (middle) of Rhonda Jo’s Deli and Espresso with two of her very helpful friends. Stacie Taylor (left) and Dawn Christensen (right).

 

Rhonda Jo’s American dream comes true

Tucked away on a little dead end street off 105th Ave. and Sandy Blvd., you’ll find a hidden jewel.  Located in Parkrose at 10314 N.E. Marx St., this building houses quite a surprise.  But this cozy corner didn’t appear from nowhere.  Re-modeling began as soon as Rhonda Jo Kaer saved enough money to buy the business in February 2001.  Walls came down and paint went up as Kaer continued to work at her full time job as an Accounting Supervisor, renovating in her spare time and on weekends. 

Finally, the work was complete and Rhonda Jo’s Deli & Espresso celebrated its grand opening on March 1, 2001.  Kaer says that if not for the help and support of her family and friends, her dream would not have come true.  Thanks to husband Carey Kaer, children Kendra and Kyle, and friends of the family, as well as her own indefatigable energy, Kaer has created a wonderful, welcoming restaurant.  After seven years as an Accounting Supervisor for a large company, Kaer now owns Rhonda Jo’s Deli & Espresso. 

Rhonda Jo’s Deli & Espresso is open for breakfast, lunch and for after work wind down when specials are offered.  The deli is open Monday through Thursday from 6:30 a.m. to 6 p.m., Friday from 6:30 a.m. to 8 p.m. and Saturday from 9 a.m. to 2 p.m.  The deli is closed on Sundays, to allow Ronda Jo and her helpers and friends a day of rest.

Rhonda Jo’s Deli & Espresso knows how to treat customers.  Rhonda knows most of her customers by name, brightening their meals with the friendly atmosphere.  Food is made as ordered, so everything is fresh and made just for you. Rhonda Jo’s also offers customers free coffee and tea with a punch card.  Weekly business card drawings are held.  The winner receives a free lunch.  In addition to all of this, Rhoda Jo’s Deli & Espresso offers beer, wine, and even video lottery. 

If you’d like to reduce your waiting time, Rhonda Jo’s Deli encourages you to call your order ahead to 503-257-4915.  You may also fax orders to 503-257-8793.  You should typically call or fax an order 30 minutes prior to arrival.  If you have a large group order, as much notice as possible is appreciated.  Catering of breakfast or lunch meetings is also available with at least 24 hours notice.

 

Neighborhood welcomes delicious new resident

The David Douglas district welcomes its most mouth watering new addition - the Happy Teriyaki restaurant at 12427 N.E. Glisan St.  Newly opened by husband and wife team Mun and Sun Chang, the new restaurant not only offers great local teriyaki, but sushi as well.  Born in Korea, the Changs located their business in David Douglas because the area seemed like a friendly, nice, quiet place that attracts a lot of people.  Reward your taste buds and welcome the district’s new residents by visiting Happy Teriyaki today.  Happy Teriyaki is open 10 a.m. to 9 p.m. daily.  For more information or reservations, please call Happy Teriyaki at 503-262-0684.

 

Preserve your priceless memories

Special video memories are also ideal for retirement parties, milestone birthdays, and memorial services.  You can even have a video made of your pet.  These videos make one-of-a-kind gifts.  A lady in the Gateway neighborhood recently had Priceless Memories produce a photo montage with music and humorous titles for her best friend of over 20 years.  When her friend saw his Christmas gift he exclaimed, “This is the best present I’ve ever gotten!” 

Priceless Memories Productions is owned and operated by Gateway residents Jenny Watters and Derek Ewell.  They will produce a video for you that is sure to delight for years to come.  Videos can include photos, home video and other memorabilia, which is enhanced with music to create just the right emotional tone.  Beginning and end titles, as well as individual titles on photos give the video a polished look.  Jenny and Derek will also tape live “interviews” or family recollections that can make your video even more meaningful.

Jenny and Derek are committed to customer service and producing a high-quality video.  A satisfied customer recently commented: “You did a creative and professional job with our video production. Your selection and timing of music and pictures was very appropriate for the occasion. Thank you for going beyond the call of duty to insure our satisfaction. We are highly recommending you to our friends and associates.”

Priceless Memories Productions will also tape and edit video of events, such as weddings.  They also produce videos for small businesses.  Whatever your needs, Priceless Memories can provide the perfect video memories.
