Here is my Feast Portland 2013 Recap of Day 2, Friday September 20, 2013

Imperial PDX Media Breakfast

A media breakfast at Imperial, thanks to my Portland Bloggers pass, at Imperial. Today, except for the Cookbook Social, my Bloggers Pass helped me through into events. The breakfast buffet at Imperial was amazing, including Irish Coffee, Bloody Mary, incredible smoothie, a bacon jam on frybread, and a sesame pastry with cream cheese stuffed inside! I don’t know why having breakfast/brunch at Imperial has never occurred to me, but it is on my list of recommendations now!

Oregon Bounty Grand Tasting at Pioneer Square

Some pictures from the Oregon Bounty Grand Tasting, when a booth happened to not have others in front of it so I could get a good shot or I wasn’t awkwardly balancing my wine glass with a sample and no hand was free for the camera. I sort of which they had one of those cocktail trays that has a stem holder- recyclable of course, though I think would keep something like that!

In a genius marketing idea, you could get an airbrushed or temporary tattoo at the Pear Booth!

The Lee Brothers on the Kitchenaid Stage were so charming that the audience didn’t even mind they did not go into the details of their demonstration of oyster peanut stew until 15-20 minutes in because we were so enjoying their stories. I also got a chance to catch Naomi Pomeroy, who totally okayed warming up butter for a dish by squeezing it in your hands (she was doing a demo of a corn souffle). Meanwhile, Whole Foods offered screen printing of the color of your choice on a reusable bag declaring support for “Eat as Promised”.

Cookbook Social

I also visited the Cookbook Social, where many of the authors had provided a sample or two of food from their book (if applicable) and it was surprisingly intimate in being able to just chat with them for a spell! I hope they bring this event back next year. Ha ha, I took photos of Joe Yonan’s kimchi deviled eggs were amazing (though spicy) and none of him- though I now have his autographed book!

Feast Portland 2013 Day 1 Recap: Paley Pre Funk, Sandwich Invitational

September 20, 2013 by Pechluck 9 Comments

Feast Portland 2013 Day 1 Recap, September 19, 2013

Paley Pre Funk at Imperial

It started with Paley Pre Funk at Imperial, featuring wine by Hawks View Cellars, Beer by Breakside Brewing, and Appetizers by Chef Ben. I felt like a superstar celebrity, surrounded by beautiful people who were fashionable and gourmet, gorgeous foods and wines that made me roll my eyes back as I sipped them. I felt like I had snuck onto one of those episodes of Top Chef Masters where they prepare an incredible meal of little bites.

Feast Portland 2013 Day 1 Recap Paley's Pre Funk, appetizers by Chef Ben: beets, white chocolate & rosemary lardo

I was really impressed by the food, which included

Beets, White Chocolate, and Rosemary Lardo
Albacore Tuna, Padrons, Pistachio Romesco
Smoked Pork Shoulder, Salsa, Crispy Potatoes
Fall Vegetable and Ricotta Terrine
Smoked Trout Salad, Horseradish, Apple Chip
Fire Roasted Gazpacho, Herbs, Brioche Croutons
Blood Sausage, Apple Sauce, Crispy Speck
Mackerel Escabeche, Crispy Pork Belly, Aioli

Feast Portland 2013 Day 1 Recap Paley's Pre Funk, appetizers by Chef Ben: beets, white chocolate & rosemary lardo

Hawks View Cellars poured their White Pinot Noir, Skin-Fermented Chardonnay, and Pinot Noir Reserve. These were very limited production wines that the general public would probably never see as it get snapped up by their wine members. Well, that last one, the Pinot Noir Reserve, is enough reason to join their wine club, I took a sip and the world stopped for a second and it unfolded on my palate. SO GOOD. Of all the amazing things I had during my visit at Paley Pre Funk, the taste of that Pinot Noir Reserve is the one I am STILL THINKING ABOUT.

Sandwich Invitational 2013

Next, the Sandwich Invitational. I had never heard of Reyka Vodka, but I was impressed by their booth as I watched the ice bar get smaller over time. I also loved their blood orange vodka beverage. Meanwhile, Tillamook was sampling 3 dessert grilled cheeses to put to a twitter vote to see which would make it to their Comfort Call menu, as previously posted (The Dark Chocolate Ginger – Tillamook Extra Sharp Cheddar with dark chocolate and candied ginger / The Ooey-Gooey – Chocolate covered pretzels with bananas, peanut butter and Tillamook Sharp Cheddar Cheese / The Marionberry Waffle – Tillamook Vintage White Extra Sharp Cheddar Cheese and Marionberry compote on Ego waffles).

Feast Portland 2013 Day 1 Recap Woodsman Tavern Smoked Lamb Gyro wtih yogurt sauce, pickled onion and zhoug on a roman candle bakery flatbread for Widmer Sandwich Invitational at Feast PDX 2013

Perhaps the photos gave away which sandwiches I liked the most. I voted for Bunk, but Judge’s choice went to David Kreifels/Laurelhurst Market for the smoked beef tongue with padron peppers. People’s Choice went to Adam Sappington/Country Cat for the juicy lamb cheeseburgers sliders. Unfortunately, my photo of the people’s choice winner was too blurry to share. Using my trick of carrying lil ziplocs in my bag so the food would not go to waste after 1-2 bites (not all sandwiches made it to the bag though- hey, I needed dinner!), I did manage to get to everyone except for Roman Candle Bakery where the sloppy giuseppe was procured by a friend but I was too full to sample but I got their leftovers after their bites, the Ruby Jewel sandwiches (3 dessert grilled cheeses from Tillamook was enough, especially adding in the extra Chocolate Brioche with Gelato from Roman Candle!) and also I missed the Clyde Common sandwich, a seafood sandwich I heard.

I leave you with some “fancy dancing” I happened to see. I also give you Francis Lam rocking orange pants and checked jacket while standing next to Naomi that I quickly paparazzi’d as I was in line waiting to get in. The line went around the block, but moved quickly as it seemed to be just a matter of scanning tickets and putting on wristbands.

Whole Foods Best Butcher Contest and Fishmonger Faceoff at Feast (Free Event!) on Sat!

September 20, 2013 by Pechluck 1 Comment

Sponsored Post for Whole Foods. Disclosure: I was provided a gift card for Whole Foods in order to create a meal using the surf and turf from Whole Foods Market, and asked to promote the Best Butcher Contest and Fishmonger Faceoff event at Feast. There was no other compensation. But I will always provide my honest opinion and assessment of all products and experiences I may be given. The views and opinions expressed in this blog are entirely my own.

I previously wrote a little bit about the upcoming September 21 Feast Portland event with Whole Foods, the Best Butcher Contest and Fishmonger Faceoff, summarizing the previouslies in that post. After already winning regional competitions, 11 butchers and 11 fishmongers will be here at Director Park from 11am-2pm Saturday for the final battle.

Overview of the Contest and Faceoff Event

The contest and faceoff consists of a series of quick-fire challenges in front of a live audience (which could include you- it definitely is going to include me!) and panel of expert and celebrity judges (recognizable names include Jenn Louis and Paul Qui who have been on Top Chef Masters and won Top Chef respectively, as well as owning restaurants; also Adam Sappington of Country Cat and Aaron Franklin of Franklin BBQ).

See the detailed list of the panel and the competitors at the The Whole Foods Newsroom, but here’s a quick glance!

Meet the Butchers and Fishmongers at the Best Butcher Contest and Fishmonger Faceoff at Feast 2013, September 21 at Director Park

According to the Feast Website for this event, besides being dazzled by their presentation, craftsmanship, and swagger, there will also be opportunities to sample some surf and turf from Whole Foods Market’ partners, and also enjoy live music and a photo booth.

Whole Foods Best Butcher Contest and Fishmonger Faceoff at Feast 2013, September 21 at Director Park

Get to Know your Whole Foods Meat and Seafood

In addition, this is also an opportunity to learn about the background behind the sustainable meat and seafood at the counters of Whole Foods. I spoke with a local fishmonger at the nearby Whole Foods in the Pearl, and was impressed to hear that one of his coworkers, Jesse, won in competing with his other coworkers at the store in terms of yield. He then faced off against all the other fishmongers at the Portland stores and won, which then took him to the regionals to compete. Although he did not win the regionals and is not competing tomorrow at the Fishmonger Faceoff, you may find that your neighborhood Whole Foods gives you access to some pretty top notch talent!

I also learned that they are all ready to help you get your seafood prepared for your dinner. Do you want to buy that fresh shrimp, but don’t want to deal with deveining/removing the tail? They’ll totally do it for you.

Want some help deciding how to flavor your seafood for your meal? They have tasted all the rubs and marinades and can help you pick out what to add to your selected seafood- and will season it for FREE for you! There are 14 rubs and 7 marinades for you to choose from! That’s right- FOURTEEN rubs and SEVEN marinades.

The flavors options they offer are wide, varying from Lemon Dill or Blackened to Northwest Chipotle, Tandoori Spice, Tequila Lime, or Thai Curry or more for rubs, and choices such as Caribbean Mango, Ginger Teriyaki, Maple Chipotle and Raspberry Chipotle to select from! My rep was quite fond of Lemon Dill for fattier fish and the Maple Chipotle (though if you want more heat Raspberry Chipotle is hotter). They also provide several options in whcih are already prepped for you, and just waiting for you to finish and cook!

Whole Foods Market, Seafood

When you see they have specials with that whole fish, don’t be intimidated to ask them for help on cutting it for you- it will save you so much work and worry, and they are more than happy to give you a hand and be of service.

I wanted to also mention one of the reasons that when I do purchase meat, I like going to Whole Foods. I am willing to pay a little bit extra because they label all their meat with a scale of 1 through 5+ based on the animal welfare standards. This ranges from 1-no cages, no crates, no crowded as the minimum to 2 -enriched environment 3-enhanced outdoor access 4-pasture centered 5-animal centered no physical alterations step 5+animal centered, entire life on same farm. Of course, this is not the same thing as organic. However, I strongly support stepping away from factory farms and a return to farming and ranching with respect for the life that is being taken.

Whole Foods Market, butcher

Meanwhile, as I was admiring the case, I became interested in a cut I had never seen before- a Jersey Boneless Short Rib Steak. Apparently, there is only one cut of this per animal, and you don’t see it in stores much because butchers usually take it home to their families. I’ve had short rib before, noticeably and most often in Kalbi, a marinated grilled Korean version of the meat, which I love. But this is a boneless short rib. And, just like with kalbi, they are a very rich cut that includes some good fat content. I’ll circle back with more detail in a future post.

For now though, I encourage you to think about attending the FREE Feast event at Directors Park- both for seeing the mastery of the sharp knives from the butchers and fishmongers and also the surf and turf samples! Come cheer on the butchers and fishmongers as they can demonstrate their craft at this event, and learn about the meats and seafood of Whole Foods!

Feast Portland: Late Night Tillamook Comfort Call

September 18, 2013 by Pechluck 7 Comments

Feastivus is almost here! Feast Portland is only a day away! Eeeeeeee!!!!! It’s Feast Eve!!!

Feast, of course, is amulti-day food festival raising money for Share Our Strength’s No Kid Hungry Campaign and Partners for a Hunger-Free Oregon September 19-22. 2013.

I just found out about some great stuff Tillamook Cheese has planned for Feast, and wanted to share with all my other cheese lover readers. In fact, I mean this literally- find me during Feast and let’s have some TIllamook cheese together! Here are the deets about the cheese:

Last year and this year, Tillamook is one of the sponsors of Feast. As they explained here in their blog post Loaf Life: Comfort Call: “Tillamook, being the cheese-nerds that we are, couldn’t just hand out samples. Yes, we wanted to hand out samples, but we couldn’t just stop there. The next logical choice was, of course, grilled cheese sandwiches.”

Yes, of course Tillamook. That is the next logical choice. Hot melty cheese a la Grilled Cheese Sandwiches with Tillamook Cheese.

The concept of the Tillamook Comfort Call is that Tillamook plans to hand out a certain number of special phones (“Tillaphones”) for Feast which are a direct line to calling in a grilled cheese emergency and ordering a grilled cheese delivered to you (assuming you are in the appropriate radius of the Feast festival) during the late night hours (11pm-3am) on Friday and Saturday of Feast.

Tillamook handed out special flip-phones at Feast Portland whose sole purpose was ordering a grilled cheese sandwich from Tillamook between midnight and 3am – just when you need it most!

LOVE. LOVE.

I hope to see if I can acquire a Tillaphone, and make a Tillamook Comfort Call! Then you should look for me at the ChefStable after party and Portland Penny Diner Popup party on Fri and Sat late night so I can “Share the Loaf”- i.e. share the Tillaphone so other Feast attendees can enjoy Comfort Call too. Just let me take a photo of the deliciousness, ok? If I can’t acquire a Tillaphone, I am so stalking Urban Bliss Life- check out her informative post on Tillamook and Feast too! She is sweet, smart, and will surely be enjoyable company while enjoying melty cheese.

So what’s on the Tillaphone menu?

The Triple Threat Grilled Cheese – Tillamook Colby Jack, Vintage White Extra Sharp Cheddar and Sharp Cheddar Cheeses
Sweet & Spicy BBQ Grilled Cheese – Tillamook Sharp Cheddar and Pepper Jack cheese with caramelized onions, BBQ sauce and bacon
Dessert Grilled Cheese?

That’s right, a Dessert Grilled Cheese!

Tillamook will be sampling three dessert grilled cheeses at the Widmer Brothers Brewing Sandwich Invitational Presented by Lincoln Motor Co (tickets sold out). Attendees will get to sample and vote for their favorite at the event through social media, and the fan favorite will be featured on the Comfort Call menu. The contenders for the dessert grilled cheese are:

The Dark Chocolate Ginger – Tillamook Extra Sharp Cheddar with dark chocolate and candied ginger
The Ooey-Gooey – Chocolate covered pretzels with bananas, peanut butter and Tillamook Sharp Cheddar Cheese
The Marionberry Waffle – Tillamook Vintage White Extra Sharp Cheddar Cheese and Marionberry compote on Ego waffles

Thankfully, I also already bought myself a ticket to the Sandwich Invitatational (which I blogged about here), so I will report back on on these sandwiches, and will stalk around looking for a Tillaphone, hopefully to participate in a Tillamook Comfort Call! I hope to sample all these sandwiches. I am a dedicated reviewer of cheese.

Besides the Sandwich Invitational, Tillamook will also be present at the Oregon Bounty Grand Tasting on Friday and Saturday September 20, 21, offering cheese samples of the Tillamook Sharp Cheddar and Monterey Jack. Keep in mind that Tillamook’s Sharp Cheddar won “America’s Best” at the 2013 United States Championship Cheese Contest (as did their Vintage White Extra Sharp Cheddar and Colby Jack). The Monterey Jack won “America’s Best” at the 2011 United States Championship Cheese Contest.

Make sure you keep apprised on Twitter by following @TillamookCheese! The Tillamook County Creamery Association is a cooperative of 110 dairy farming families since 1909, and their products are made with only the highest quality milk from cows not treated with artificial growth hormones. You can feel good about supporting local as you eat their delicious products.

You know what else you could do when you visit Tillamook at the Grand Tasting? Get this… they are offering the ability to grill your face onto a grilled cheese sandwich. Ok, grill your face digitally, but still!

If you are looking for me at Feast, my current Feast schedule includes the Widmer Sandwich Invitational (sold out), both days of the Oregon Bounty Grand Tasting presented by Alaska Airlines (tickets still available for Friday and for Saturday!), the Cookbook Social (free/$5 donation) on Friday- for a list of the various authors attending and what they wrote, check out my cookbook lineup homework here.

For Saturday, besides the Grand Tasting I will also be at the Whole Foods Best Butcher Contest and Fishmonger Faceoff (free!) and High Comfort at the Nines by Portland Monthly (tickets sold out). Both Fri and Sat I will be at most of the various Speaker Series events (tickets available, $10 each), and also the ChefStable after party and Portland Penny Diner Popup party. The Portland Penny Diner Popup mentioned is not a ticketed event: you can read more about them and other unofficial Feast events here at Eater Where to Eat During Feast Portland 2013. And I might be at more! Check out where I am on foursquare or @pechluck on Twitter!

What do you think of the 5 Tillamook grilled cheese creations above? Which would you pick to try for your Tillamook booty call?

Update! Recap:

Trying a the Sandwich Invitational the 3 Tillamook cheese sandwiches! Tillaphone- time for a late night grilled cheese call! It's a Tillamook delivery!

Disclosure: I was granted a Bloggers Pass for Feast Portland 2013 which grants me access to the Media Lounge and Grand Tastings and Speaker Series. I was asked to help promote Feast but they did not require that I write this post and I am not otherwise being compensated.

The tickets to the Sandwich Invitational and High Comfort at the Nines were purchased out of my own pocket. I have no affiliation with Tillamook except that I love their products, and they make cheese, I love cheese, and so I wanted to promote what they are doing at Feast. The views and opinions expressed in this blog are entirely my own, and I will always provide my honest opinion and assessment of all products and experiences regardless of whether they were complimentary or not.

Do you have your tickets for the Friday or Saturday Oregon Bounty Grand Tasting at Pioneer Courthouse Square yet? Can you believe it’s just in four days?!!?? I feel like it’s Foodie Christmas.

As I covered previously, the Oregon Bounty Grand Tasting presented by by Alaska Airlines transforms Portland’s “living room” square in the middle of downtown Portland into a two day food festival with demos and tastings celebrating offerings of the Northwest. A dozen breweries, 32 wine producers, and 15 local Northwest producers will be present for sampling and discuss their craft, plus more!!

The goal of Feast Portland is to raise money for two Portland charity partners focused on fighting hunger: Share Our Strength and Partners for a Hunger-Free Oregon. So participating in the Oregon Grand Bounty Tasting is nourishment for yourself as well as others.

Tickets are $60 and the event takes place as part of Feast Portland on two days, Friday, September 20th and Saturday, Sept 21st 12:00pm – 5:00pm at Pioneer Courthouse Square. Please note that each day is a different all inclusive ticket. Your entrance ticket grants you all inclusive access to sample and learn about it all inside. Yes, look at the wonderful morsels in store, as evidenced by last year!

If the $60 price is too dear for you, you can still enjoy Feast. Other affordable events to consider include the Speaker Panel Series where each event is $10, the Cookbook Social that is free/suggested donation of $5, or the free Whole Foods Best Butcher Contest/Fishmonger Faceoff, as covered in previous posts I wrote- just copy my homework!

There will also be unofficial events, such as the current creative ice cream flavors at Ruby Jewel and Salt & Straw which are already available at their respective locations. If you vote for the Ruby Jewel ice cream before Thursday, you may even win a ticket to the Grand Tasting- check it out!

Meanwhile, I have a few more new details about the Grand Tasting, so thought I would share them. There are special guests which are appearing Friday and Saturday, and here is the tentative schedule I have seen so far for the KitchenAid Main Demo Stage:

Friday KitchenAid Main Demo Stage:

• 1-1:45pm – Jenn Louis, Lincoln Restaurant

• 2:30-3:15pm – Duff Goldman, Charm City Cakes

• 4-4:45pm – Matt and Ted Lee, The Lee Brothers
