Pal’s - Hayden Island

Went to @palswithus for the legendary kettle-crusted trout sandwich and got distracted by the largest, most enchanting maze of riverbank lupine and the movie set marina. This nostalgic spot set on the banks of the Columbia River is prime for summer nights—but I’d head there now to catch this wondrous swath of purple blooms! 🪻🍃☀️ @palswithus @earth.ecology @columbia_crossings #pdxeats #willtravelforfood #1859oregon #summervibes☀️ #portlandeats

Saturday July 11th 7:00pm - Pal’s - Hayden Island Join us for a summer evening of live-fire cooking with our buddy @galuten , chef and James Beard Award–winning cookbook author. We’ll be grilling up dishes from Noah’s new book, Grill Time! The late evening of high summer, relaxed, family-friendly walk around party with grilled food, drinks, and plenty of time to hang out by the water and meet the author. Cooking up a cocktail-style evening with multiple live-fire stations from @thaancharcoal inspired by the book, including a mix of seafood, like grilled clams from @hamahamaoysters , vegetables, sausages from our friends at @olympiaprovisions and other summer-ready dishes cooked over the fire. It’s less a formal dinner than a really good outdoor party: come hungry, grab a drink, meet Noah and the family, and settle into a July night on the water. Tickets include 2 drink tickets, access to the grilling lawn, and all the ice cold @drinkspindrift sparkling water you can handle! We’ll have tickets for you to bring kids, as well as the option to purchase the book, thanks to Broadway Books, and have Noah personalize it for you!

Throw back to our oyster 101 classes from OOF, where everyone got a deep lesson on how oysters are raised and how to select them and what to look out for. And to top it off they all got a slick oyster knife from @opinelofficiel to take home after they learned to shuck with it.

I love oysters, and the highlight of the Oregon Oyster Festival had to have been Saturday night’s chef collaboration dinner. From start to finish, it was an unforgettable, impeccably executed oyster-forward menu by Chef Jorge Luis Hernandez of Isidore (recently awarded one of Texas’s first Michelin stars for his San Antonio restaurant), alongside Chef Conrado Gonzalez of @palswithus , formerly of Michelin-starred Corima in NYC — and a colleague of Jorge Luis from their Texas days. With just 40 seats available, it was an intimate, one-night-only experience. If you missed it (and chances are you did), consider this your sign to book a table at Pal’s — and to make a reservation at @isidoresatx the next time you’re in San Antonio. These guys are so talented! Here’s how the evening unfolded: — Welcome Snacks — • Smoked oyster Johnny cake, Tillamook white cheddar mousse • Oyster & albacore brandade, wild mushroom conserva, burnt honey • Popcorn chicken, oyster aioli, popcorn velouté — Welcome Cocktail — Oyster Shell Gibson — Oyster & Sunchoke Chowder — Oyster & bacon escabeche, sunchoke and brown butter espuma, persillade — Seared Cabbage & Grapefruit — Sweet chile caramel, chicken-fried oyster, trout roe — Fideos, Catalan-Style — Salmorra, squid sofrito, oyster aioli — Beef Striploin — Seaweed umami crust, sea urchin and bread amino sauce, papas arrugadas, mojo verde — Hangtown Fry à la Mode — Tillamook ice cream, oyster sabayon, candied bacon — Floating Hayden Island — L’Avelline crème anglaise, brown butter powder, candied hazelnuts 📍Pal’s @palswithus 515 NE Tomahawk Island Drive Portland, Oregon #oregonoysterfestival #palswithus #oysterlover #pdxfoodie #isidorsatx
