Kann

Portland, US

The hottest ticket in Portland, Oregon comes by way of author, Top Chef contestant and James Beard Award winner Gregory Gourdet, the son of Haitian immigrants whose resume includes time spent cooking under Jean-Georges Vongerichten. Gourdet’s new wood-fire-centric restaurant, whose daily operation is overseen by chef Varanya J. Geyoonsawat, tells the story of Haitian foodways, bringing the often overlooked cuisine to new audiences in a way that expresses both joy and soul at the same time. With some ingredients sourced directly from Haiti and others grown locally in the Pacific Northwest (for freshness and sustainability reasons), the food communicates a modern Caribbean sensibility. With no gluten or dairy on the menu, the restaurant is also an accessible place for those with pervasive food allergies and a substantial alcohol-free cocktail program is given the same seriousness as the wine and beer lists, which both feature regional makers and flavours.
