Thread: Hillsboro, OR July 30-Aug 4th

Anything cool going on at that time? Do they have some good ME restaurants with dancers?

Hillsboro is pretty much a suburb of Portland, it's about 25-30 miles from the city. I don't know if there is anything going on in Hillsboro (when Saqra's Showcase isn't there, anyway!). There used to be a Middle Eastern restaurant/club in Lake Oswego. Will you be able to drive some distance from Hillsboro?

I'm sure Portland dancers will chime in with more suggestions.

I don't think there's much out in Hillsboro aside from Saqra's Showcase.

I think you will have to drive into Beaverton or Portland. In Beaverton, I think both Yasmeen and Santorini have music and belly dancing.

In Portland, there's a lot of choose from: Al Amir, Pasha's, Marrakesh, Greek Cuisina, Alexis which all usually have dancing on Friday and Saturday nights.

Jewels probably knows best. But you can check out the homepages of some of the local dancers and see their performance schedules:

Thanks ladies, I didn't realize I would be so close to Portland, I taught at Saqra's Showcase last year and had a blast!!

It is very close. It's about 30 minutes drive on US 26 East from the showcase grounds in Hillsboro to downtown Portland where a lot of the restaurants with dancing are located. It's around 20 minutes to Beaverton.
