As I covered in my previous post, March is a time when 140+ restaurants offer three course meals for $33 all month long. I shared my top picks in my last post, and today’s post is the first of my dinners: I kicked off Portland Dining Month 2020 at Headwaters.
Besides the $33 for 3 courses, they also offered another huge value: local Oregon wine pairings for all three courses for $17 more. Here’s a look at the Portland Dining Month menu at Headwaters for 2020.
The 3 courses are set – no options from the PDM menu, but your dining companions may also choose to order a la carte from the regular menu if they wish. The first course was Shrimp-stuffed piquillo peppers with goat cheese, mint, almonds and frisée salad in a sweet onion sous vide sauce. I found this a well balanced dish and I was wiping my finger on the bowl to get the last of the sauce. This is paired with a bright 2018 Cremant de Portland brut urbanique by Division Wine Making Company.
