We’re donating 10% of our sales next Friday (8/22) to Animal Aid PDX, a no-kill shelter & rescue organization. It’s a good excuse to get our food in your face.

Dessert alert! Yokan is now on the menu! For those not in the know, it’s layers of red bean anko & a gel made from agar embedded with fresh seasonal fruit. Topped with fresh whipped cream! Yum.

Humi and Jason’s spectacular Japanese comfort food at 100% #vegan @obonpdx.bsky.social in #PDX is a joyful celebration of locally and sustainably grown food, and they keep coming up with amazing seasonal specials. They show without a doubt that being vegan is not about deprivation.

Very late in the season, we finally found enough morels to put on the menu! They’re shio koji’ed & grilled, then added to a chilled/creamy soy-based hazelnut tantan w/ udon. Other bites include fried tofu crumble, quick-pickled cucumber, fresh tomatoes, & house made chili crisp.

Last chance to get our Zaru Soba for a bit. But worry not, we’ve got another special coming in hot!

Almost out of this amazing dessert. We estimate we’ve got about a week left before we run out.

Chilled noodles anyone?! We’ve got Zaru Soba w/ Broccoli Raab on the menu now. To craft a bite, you dip the buckwheat noodles (not GF, sorry) in a tamari sauce w/ a little wasabi. Then take a big bite of kakiage which highlights the sweetest broccoli of the year! All topped with fried tofu & nori.☀️

New special! As we await the full force of spring mushroom season to hit us, we’ve been out collecting bracken fern sprouts (aka warabi).
It’s Zaru Soba:
Chilled handmade buckwheat noodles with asparagus and foraged warabi kakiage paired with warm kombu dashi dipping sauce w/ a bit of wasabi.

We foraged the two main ingredients for our new special! It’s Sakura Nigiri! To make them we salt-cured cherry blossoms & nasturtium leaves, then mixed the sakuras with sprouted brown rice, & wrapped that mixture with a nasturtium leaf. Topped with tofu misozuke & Korean shiso oil. 🌸

We’re out of buckwheat flour, so today is our last day we’re serving these amazing chocolate chip cookies. While the cookie itself is pretty gooey, those sesame seeds give them a very satisfying crunch! 🌗

Found our first conical verpas ever the other day. We’ve been mushroom hunting for 15 years & rarely does a year go by that we don’t find a species to be on the lookout for. #themoreyouknow, the more you realize how little you really know. Some of the season’s first morels were in attendance too! 😋

FYI: We’re down to just 50 yuzu seedlings for the week! There are still a bunch in our main sprouting pans, but they haven’t popped their heads out yet, so we’re leaving them to grow until next Sunday. 🌱
