"This Kerns omakase is likely Portland’s most expensive tasting menu at $250 per person, but those willing to shell out the big bucks will be rewarded with around 20 courses of everything from chanterelle dashi to uni miso butter rice to firefly squid with pickled shiitake mushrooms. Menus are highly conceptual and change often; they’re teased on Instagram, pulling inspiration from seasons, places, poetry, art. Let’s put it this way: If Questlove is coming to Portland, he’s getting a reservation at Nodoguro." - Michelle Lopez, Brooke Jackson-Glidden
