MatchMaker Suppers presents a dinner with Chefs Justin Woodward and Ryan Roadhouse. We offer a 15 course tasting menu served on the utilitarian ceramics of Lilith Rockett, Lindsay Oesterritter, and Careen Stoll created specifically for this event in celebration of The National Council on Education in the Ceramic Arts conference hosted by Portland in 2017. Please join us in enjoying an unprecedented collaboration between artful fine dining and tabletop composition.

We offer a carefully curated tasting menu of 15 courses, co-created by Chefs Woodward and Roadhouse that takes inspiration from the compositions of dishes created by the potters. Woodward was nominated for the James Beard Award of Best Chef of the NW in 2015 and 2016. Portland Monthly named Roadhouse’s restaurant Nodoguro 2015’s best restaurant. Both of them are excited to work with full-time studio potters Stoll, Rockett, and Oesterritter. Rockett in particular has focused on offering her luminous porcelain ware to fine dining establishments across the country. Stoll has been focused locally, providing dishes to Langbaan and Biwa and designing for production. Oesterritter recently left a professorship to return to her studio practice and woodfiring kiln.
