Dao Deli Guest Chef Dinner
2025年5月17日のみ表示する
We have Chef Anthony Dao of Dao Deli coming in from Hood River to cook with us for one night only!
Fun fact: Anthony cooked Louis & Jolyn's engagement lunch at Hiyu Wine Farm for their closest friends and family AND recently did a pop-up at Maurice to showcase his cooking to the Portland community. We had a chance to catch his pop-up at Maurice and we were blown away! Needless to say, we LOVE the way he cooks and we can't wait to share it with you! His food is a perfect pairing to our first generation American concept.
No tickets, but reservations highly recommended! A la carte menu all night; we'll have a few of Anthony's dishes alongside our a la carte menu. See you there!
ABOUT THE CHEF:
Anthony Dao is a Pacific Northwest native and Columbia River Gorge resident.
As a first-generation American born to Vietnamese refugees, he brings a richly multicultural perspective to his cooking.
After a brief stint in the corporate space upon completing his undergrad at Washington State University, his budding interest in hospitality first took him to New York City, where he worked in Michelin-starred kitchens like The Nomad, The Finch and Casa Mono.
An itch for adventure later led him to Australia, where he and his partner, Kaylee, worked on farms and vineyards, seeking a closer connection to the land and learning how that relationship ultimately impacts flavor.
Pursuing an integration of his experiences in agriculture, wine and hospitality, he returned to the Pacific Northwest and joined the team at James Beard-nominated Hiyu Wine Farm in Hood River, OR where he spent nearly four years as the sous chef. Now, he's operating a roving pop-up called Dao Deli, sharing his vision throughout the Gorge and beyond.
