Portland’s Best Restaurants and Bars, Spring 2025 | Eater Portland
"Farm-to-table is likely the most pervasive of the Portland culinary cliches; every pricey restaurant in town touts some version of its ethos, name-dropping a few farms or grabbing a few seasonal items from the farmers market. But Pasture owners Kei Ohdera and HJ Schaible take their emphasis on responsible sourcing to a new level, seeking out and developing relationships with regenerative farms for whole-animal butchery inside the restaurant. The result: Straight-up delicious sandwiches, ranging from housemade mortadella to achingly tender pastrami, served with house pickled peppers. Even the chocolate chip cookies are crafted with pork lard, studded with whole Oregon hazelnuts. It’s not just walking the walk of sustainability; it’s making it feel approachable (and delicious)." - Katherine Chew Hamilton
