Levant's New Hours; Trifecta Tavern's Summer Drinks

NORTH PORTLAND—Ecliptic brewer John Harris releases chef Michael Molitor's summer menu today, on the summer solstice. Look for apps like grilled shrimp with watermelon, basil oil, and feta, and entrées like beer-brined grilled pork loin with treviso and apricot-jalapeño chutney. [EaterWire]

SOUTHEAST—As of today, Levant serves dinner seven nights a week. Since the weather's prime, Levant's happy hour seating has also more than doubled thanks to the patio. Go for reduced price drinks nightly from 5 p.m. to 6 p.m. and 9 p.m. to 10 p.m. at the bar and on the patio, only. [EaterWire]

BUCKMAN—Trifecta Tavern bar manager Colin Carroll has dialed in nine new summer cocktails. There's a pisco sour, a Moscow mule, a daiquiri, a Queens Park Swizzle (aged rum, lime, Demerara, mint and an Angostura cordial), and a Painkiller (two rums, fresh pineapple and orange juices, coconut cream, and nutmeg).
