Sure, Baby Ketten was always the hippest karaoke night in town, but weekends at Yen Ha were the drunkest. The owners of Portland's oldest Vietnamese restaurant and bar have announced the business is closing forever Oct. 21, giving you two weeks to get in another acetone-stiff cocktail, a plate of frog legs, and a round of "Whole Lotta Love." You'll miss it when it's gone.

Speaking of Baby Ketten: After a decade of transience, Portland's cult-favorite karaoke night has put down roots on Southeast Powell.

It was only a matter of time before Williams Avenue got a shiny new two-story bar that looks teleported from the Pearl. While most distilleries are boutique affairs relegated to minimal storefronts or corners of industrial spaces, the menu and ambience at Shine should give brewpubs like Breakside and 10 Barrel a run for their money.
