Japanese Wood-Fire Restaurant Takibi Reopens This Week | Eater Portland
"After closing temporarily in January 2024 due to a chimney fire, I’m glad the wood-fire restaurant will reopen on September 12 with a new menu and a new chef. Chef de cuisine Milo Vanderpool and Snow Peak culinary advisor Yuichi Kugimoto have redesigned the menu with a focus on Japanese comfort food, adding dishes like Oregon albacore tuna and Columbia River king salmon sashimi, Snake River Farms pork belly katsu, and a slow-cooked chashu steak. Seasonal vegetables sourced from local farmers markets will be prepared in a Dutch oven over a fire, and later this fall the restaurant plans to open a cart specializing in Niigata-style ramen on its outdoor patio." - Janey Wong
