When we brought the @chaosdinnerpdx to life, there were a lot of moving parts—timing, pacing, people, plates, and that constant behind-the-scenes pressure to make everything feel effortless for guests. It truly wouldn’t have been possible without the team at @floor19venue . From the moment we loaded in, they were locked in with us—calm, capable, and ready for whatever the night needed.
Morchella works with venues all over Oregon and Washington, but this one stands out in a big way. Sitting on the 19th floor across from the Arlene Schnitzer Concert Hall, Floor 19 has floor-to-ceiling windows with views over South Portland that make the whole room feel elevated before the first course even hits the table.
And for chefs, the kitchen is a dream—two of everything, commercial refrigeration, and a layout that makes it possible to plate 1,750 portions in just a few hours without the chaos behind the scenes.
If you’re planning an event and want a venue that can handle large events (with rooms you can book individually) while still feeling special, Floor 19 is worth seeing in person. Want Morchella to cater your next event there? Send us a message. Photos By: @neighbourkidd
Meet Cameron Dunlap—the visionary and instigator of Chaos Dinner!
A brilliant chef and master of multitasking, Cameron was inspired to bring Chaos Dinner to life after a trip to Alaska—where, while riding in the back of a jeep, chef @flourgirlandflame told him about her and her friends executing their own version of a chaos dinner.
He came home fired up and got to work right away.
After nearly 10 years running fine dining kitchens—including his own—Cameron shifted into the world of events and catering, building it under Morchella Events.
Cameron couldn’t be more excited to see this vision come to life, and can’t wait to welcome you all tomorrow!

We’re so excited to host you all for this dinner and can’t wait to share the experience!
Real quick… Let’s talk dietary restrictions.
Because this is a one-night event featuring 25 courses from multiple chefs, we won’t be able to accommodate dietary restrictions. With so many dishes being prepared simultaneously, there isn’t a way for us to safely modify individual courses.
We want to be upfront so guests can decide if this experience is the right fit. We truly appreciate the understanding.
Tickets available via link in bio.

For the first 10 years of my cooking career, I used to post all the pictures of my food. A few thousand creative dishes later, it’s less of a new dish and more of personal practice.
This is a simple dessert of Dark Chocolate, Pumpkin Seed Praline, Ruby Port from @confluencewinery , Poached Pears, and Lemon Balm. #pdx #chefsroll #foodies
We’re building this dinner to feel immersive, playful, visually striking, and unlike anything else in Portland.
Each chef brings their own voice and creativity, while every course connects as part of one larger story.
