Plumb
Day 2: 5-Course French Americana Tasting Series
Opened just over a year ago within the modernist lounge Deadshot in Southeast Portland, this “residency bistro” made two Eater lists—“Best Pop-Ups to Know” and “Essential Portland Spots”—as well as the Oregonian’s “Best New Restaurants” list. Chef Alexander Trombadore is turning out what he labels “French- and Farm-influenced American fare,” with dishes like braised beets with feta and grapefruit, charred cabbage with pickled apple, hazelnuts, and Alpine cheese, harissa grilled octopus leg, pork and parsley terrine, and, of course, steak frites. (The dessert of the moment is bread pudding with chocolate ganache and crème anglaise. Yum!) The Oregonian raves, “How many places in America — heck, in the world? — offer the opportunity to eat a truly great steak frites while sipping on a mix of rums, ube-coconut orgeat and acid-adjusted pineapple juice from a ceramic Santa mug?” What more needs to be said? See you there!
