Experience what makes Portland unique
FARMERS MARKET TOUR + Cooking Class
Portland is home to one of the strongest food systems in the world. The bounty of Oregon is reflected in the 250 (or more) vendors who offer their colorful and ripe seasonal best at several different markets around Portland. Before you get here, we will set a time and a market as our meeting place. There, you will be greeted by one of our chefs who, prior to your arrival, will have designed a menu that demands the freshest, most tasty ingredients around.
Where else to go but the Farmer’s Market? There, you will discover varieties of produce you may not have encountered before. Baby Japanese eggplant, freshly picked; fragrant tomatoes plump with juice; seasonal berries in red and blue hues; Oregon walnuts and hazelnuts; farm fresh eggs, even duck eggs if you want; hard cider made from heirloom apples; juicy white peaches; grass fed pork, beef, and lamb; hand-crafted cheeses made from goat’s milk, cow’s milk, or sheep’s milk. There seems no limit to the feast for your eyes and ears at the Farmer’s Market, and later for your palate at In Good Taste. At the market, the chef will show you the way to choose the best of the best, and if you’ve a question, or don’t recognize an ingredient, it’s Chef’s pleasure to share his or her knowledge. You’ll have the opportunity to talk to the individual farmers and growers who love to tell you about their products.
After you are finished shopping, eating, and learning at the market, perhaps we’ll stop for lunch at a nearby food cart in the heart of the market. When finished, everyone comes to In Good Taste where our kitchens await you! Once here, you will have the pleasure of cooking right alongside the chef. Or, if you’d rather, we’ll cook for you while you sip some bubbly and watch as the chef demonstrates how to use what you’ve purchased. The day culminates with a four or five course gourmet meal paired with wines.
Optional extras include high-quality twill chef jackets with your logo: $50.00 each and Top Chef Cookbook $27.00 each
We also offer a professional photographer option: which can add a lot of fun and suspense to the entire event.
