First time cooking at Redwood

I’ve been dreaming up a dinner that bridges my Caribbean roots with the bold, fresh flavors of Lao cooking. On September 26th, we’re setting the tables for a one-night-only mashup: smoky poussin, sticky rice, herbs piled high, tamarind, coconut, and more.

This isn’t just about food; it’s about bringing people together, passing plates, and celebrating flavor in the community.

Seats are limited (40 only) → tickets at redwoodpdx.com
Redwood, 7915 SE Stark
@ 6 PM

Come eat with us. Bring your people. Let’s make this first collab a night to remember.

ALLL SUMMER BABY!

Trying something new and selling these tasty Jamican Beef Patties with house curry to dip (OG Patties and Dip) all summer long!

For now, we have ground beef with house curry dipping sauce version. Might roll out with some other dope fillings so stayed tuned. Ordering now gets you early access with a newsletter of drops happening all summer.

These cuties come frozen with a note on instructions on best reheating practices.

Stay cool Portland!

May the Fork Be With You...

Join me, Chef Jamal of Grassroots, on May 4th at Vino Veritas for the kickoff of their Chef Series Dinners!

I’m throwing down Caribbean spring vibes — think coconut milk, cumin, allspice, shrimp paella, and a cardamom-orange olive oil cake that's basically the Millennium Falcon of desserts (fast, smooth, unforgettable).

Kick off spring — and a new culinary adventure — with us.
Tickets are moving faster than the Kessel Run. Grab yours now at the Vino Veritas website!

I’ve been posted up at good ol’ tinkertavern in Montavilla, back behind the bar and having a blast. The crew running the place? Straight-up amazing. And big love to the homies who’ve moved on to new projects—y’all set the bar high.

Meanwhile, Grassroots Food PDX has taken on a new shape. Fewer public events, more private dinners, and curated moments that hit different. Keeping it intimate, keeping it special.

But every now and then, I gotta open the doors and throw down for the community. That’s where PROJECT JAM comes in.

🗓 March 21
💰 $35 entry
🥪 Cubanos + 🍌 Plantain chips + 🍛 Curry + 🍹 Drinks
🎧 Silent disco-style headphones—choose your own vibe

Good food, good people, no stress. Come kick it

Due to low demand for the Oct 17th event, we will be postponing events until Nov. Super bummed that there wasn't more traction for the events given the first one sold out. We were really excited about the menu and the experience we were creating.

Back to the drawing board....

Thanks to , , for their help creating that first event.

Stay tuned for details on November events.
