SNOW CAN'T STOP THE SOUP! TAZON POZOLE NIGHT IS ON!

We're crazy about pozole, the traditional Mexican soup brimming with hominy and tender stewed meat or seafood, served with fresh garnishes such as cabbage, chopped onion, radish and lime. It is hearty, warming, nourishing fare—perfect comfort food for chilly weather. In many regions of Mexico, pozole is served only on Thursdays and is a wonderful excuse to gather friends and family around the table.

We're continuing this tradition at Tournant with Tazon! (which means “bowl” in Spanish) on the Third Thursdays of each month. Bowls start at $12 and you can choose from pork rojo, chicken verde or verduras (vegan), plus traditional and not so traditional add-ins and plenty of tequila, mezcal and beer to wash it all down. 

No reservations necessary—just drop by for a bowl of goodness!

Learn how to make the perfect babka and challah from Seattle pastry chef Clare Gordon and babka enthusiast Julia Raymond. Clare's baking education began in Portland at her dad's restaurant, Kenny & Zuke's Delicatessen, cementing her love of bagels, rye, challah, and other Hasidic leavened specialties. After working at bakeries and restaurants around her hometown, Clare settled in Seattle where she makes desserts (most famously, General Porpoise doughnuts) for Renee Erickson's restaurants on Capitol Hill. The scarcity of good Jewish baked goods in the Pacific Northwest inspired this class, where Clare and Julia hope to empower home bakers to take holiday carbs into their own hands. 

At this hands-on class, guests will learn how to mix, proof, and bake loaves of babka and challah. Clare will also demonstrate how to braid and form loaves, and provide basic recipes for everything covered in class.

Guests will each take home a finished loaf of babka and challah in addition the recipes and the skills *kneaded* to recreate loaves at home.

$60 includes all materials, snacks, and an absurd amount of food puns.

We are so excited to announce that Conserva will be joining us for our monthly Tournant Oyster Social! We've been huge fans of Leslie and Manuel Recio since they were full time farmers at Viridian Farms, where they single-handedly started the padron pepper craze in Portland. Now, at Conserva, they offer a thoughtfully curated selection of specialty foods from Spain and France. 

For this special Oyster Social, Manuel will be carving Spanish jamon to order, and believe us when we say that jamon with oysters is a match made in culinary heaven. We are also thrilled to offer a variety of their seafood conservas on this evening. Conservas are delightful little tins of delicious seafood or vegetables that are often served at tapas bars abroad. They are a way to preserve the best ingredients at their peak and we can't wait to share them with you.

We'll be serving a selection of Spanish wines and sherry to complement these offerings. No reservations necessary, just drop by for restaurant-style seating. Hope to see you at the table!

We've got a treat for you! We're collaborating with our friends and neighbors OCAC/PNCA to put on a truly unique Black Friday event. Sip a glass of bubbly or a kir royale while browsing art and objects from Applied Craft + Design graduate students. You'll be able to meet the makers and pick up some one-of-a-kind handmade gifts from local artists as well as exotic travel-inspired finds from local boutique Le Souk Le Souk.

We know that shopping makes you hungry (and thirsty), so we'll be setting up our oyster bar for some fresh and briny $2 buck shucks and serving treats from our café as well--including our signature butter coffee as well as tea, hot chocolate, french press coffee, wine, pastries and savory tarts.

Come support local artisans and our small business this Black Friday!
