This Oregon Restaurant Puts Seasonal Pacific Northwest Ingredients at The Center of Every Plate

Ask what’s on tonight’s menu, and the honest answer depends entirely on what got harvested earlier that same day. Seasonal ingredients drive nearly every decision in this kitchen, dishes shifting constantly as farms nearby supply whatever’s actually ripe or ready rather than sticking to a fixed lineup.
