Portland Cooks: Recipes from the City’s Best Restaurants and Bars

"Danielle’s beautiful collection of recipes bears witness to the wealth of talented cooks and delicious fare that can be found in the city we are lucky enough to call home. 

John Becker and Megan Scott, fourth-generation stewards of "Joy of Cooking"

"Wow, I love this book! The personalities, the photos, the recipes―everything makes me excited to explore my own city in a new way. This book is the ultimate immersion into our one-of-a-kind, funky, fun, warm, and delicious city."

Martha Holmberg, cookbook author, former food editor at The Oregonian, former publisher of Fine Cooking magazine.

“Portland is teeming with culinary talent, and lucky for us all, Danielle Centoni captures the stories, profiles, and recipes from this esteemed group of chefs, pastry chefs, bartenders, and artisan food producers in Portland Cooks. A delectable ice cream cone from Salt & Straw can be made at home. Portland’s rich culinary scene is gloriously portrayed right here.”
