Event

Wyatt Earp Pop-Up

Following on the success of "Hogtoberfest," Acaida Bistro chef/owner Adam Higgs hands over the reins once again to his friend and colleague chef Kris Warneke for a trip to the Southwest. On Sunday, November 9th at 5:30 p.m., Acadia's Louisiana cuisine shifts westward, serving New Mexico flavors that have been sorely under-represented in Portland's dining landscape. The pop-up concept, dubbed "Wyatt Earp," plays off of the abandon of the Wild West and the law-abiding restraint of Earp, one of the sheriffs who killed several outlaw cowboys at the famous O.K. Corral shootout.

The set menu will consist of five hearty courses inspired by Southwest American regional cuisines with an optional beverage pairings from bar manager and mixologist Beau Burtnick. Expect tongue-in-cheek cocktails like the "Prairie Justice" and "Waco Royale" that pack a serious wallop. Supporting the grape-loving coiffeurs will be wines from Tom Glase, owner/winemaker of Balboa Winery, and winemaker for Beresan Vineyards, both in Walla Walla, WA.
