Following his formal training in Tuscon Arizona, Dojo’s executive chef Justin Goin traveled around the country for a few years before winding up back in Bend. Dojo’s tiny kitchen produces big flavors where Goin and his staff are inspired not by any one country or region but a combination of vibrant and flavorful ingredients from the Far East.
Just a few short years ago, Spork’s executive chef and owner Jeff Hunt was the captain of one of Bend’s most preferred food carts. From festivals to concerts, Spork’s shiny silver airstream trailer was easy to spot and always a favorite. Now his brick and mortar restaurant on Galveston Street is where chef Hunt has developed an unforgettably delicious and eclectic menu based on expeditions to faraway places from Bangkok to the Yucatán.
Wild Rose’s executive chef and owner Paul Itti comes to Bend via his native city of Chiang Mai in northern Thailand. Inspired by his favorite longtime family recipes and motivated by the success of southeast Portland chef Andy Ricker and his tremendously popular restaurant Pok Pok, Chef Itti chose to create his own menu of crave-worthy authentic Thai “street food”.
