Ranked by TableJourney editorial score.
Foraged Oregon mushrooms (chanterelle, morel, porcini, matsutake) cooked simply on toast or alongside game, the late-summer to autumn signature plate.
The Cascade and Coast Ranges that flank Portland are some of the most productive mushroom-foraging grounds in North America. Chanterelles peak from September to November; morels in April to May; porcini in October. The wholesale forage trade runs through buyers in Estacada and Tillamook and lands on Portland menus at Le Pigeon, Ava Gene's, Lovely's Fifty Fifty and Ken's Artisan Pizza. The PSU Farmers Market hosts forager stands every Saturday in season. The dish has no single inventor; it's a regional answer to terroir, an Oregon plate that wouldn't read the same anywhere else.
