A strip mall isn’t where I expected to get good pasta, but Pasta Veloce proved that thought wrong!




By Todd Clark (Broker/Sales Coach) 503-524-9494

On Thursday, I was meeting with one of my service providers about my short sales and how to make them more salable. We decided we needed somewhere that was in between both of us and wasn’t McDonalds and that is when Pasta Veloce was presented as an idea and I’m glad it was.

Pasta Veloce

You see, Pasta Veloce is located right in the middle of a little strip mall, in a small, little parking lot near a bank and across the street from a small, little medical center. Now, when I went in at lunch time, I quickly realized that my idea of having a restaurant in a strip mall was a weird place was way wrong, there were only a few seats left.

This place is a cross between a fast food restaurant and a casual restaurant. As soon as you walk in, you walk up to the counter, pick up a menu and order right from the counter. Then they give you a number, you walk to your seat, and about 10 minutes later your food arrives. The atmosphere was perfect for meeting with my vendor, as it was quiet enough to talk and you didn’t feel weird talking business like you would in a McDonalds or a Burger King.

Now, I ordered the Tortellini Veloce, a three cheese dish and oh, I wanted to come back for dinner and have even more. I do like my pasta and cheese and this dish satisfied both cravings! If you are in Tigard or Beaverton I suggest you check it out. It is located just off Scholls Ferry at North Dakota Street. The only problem I had was finding a parking place since the bank, the restaurant and Starbucks are all busy. But, in my opinion, it was still well worth it.

From the desk of David Dee,

Todd, sounds like a great spot to meet and eat. We have Olive Garden here and their pasta is delicious.

I have to say I was a little shocked, wasn't sure what to expect when I entered. But, after getting my food, I was very presently surprised. I have to say when I saw the order counter, I first thought great fast food pasta, but it was certainly non Kraft on my plate.

Looks like you have a new place to take clients Todd, when it is time to talk some serious business.

Todd - There is a small Italian restaurant in a strip mall in Sandwich MA, that was introduced to me last summer. The food is fantastic.

Sounds like a great place Todd.  I'm still having morning coffee and now I'm already hungry.

Yummy...I know what you mean about being hesitant with the strip mall location, but after enjoying a few nice meals in places like this, I too have to get over that!  Yummo
