Joel Palmer House Restaurant Description:
All hail the mushroom guru! Jack Czarnecki transformed a beautiful rural Victorian mansion an hour south of Portland and now serves a menu filled with dishes that showcase mushrooms to great advantage. Czarnecki gathers the wild fungi himself and knows just where the great morels, lobster mushrooms, porcini and matsutakes hide. His son Chris mans the kitchen, which cranks out entrées such as filet mignon served with Szechwan pepper porcini sauce, or sautéed sea scallops on lotus root with wild mushroom duxelles and a Creole-Pinot Gris sauce. Czarnecki's wife Heidi conceived the memorable three-mushroom tart. Dishes change frequently as the Czarneckis like experimenting with local ingredients. For the ultimate experience, your table can order the Mushroom Madness Menu: you choose your entrée and the other courses are a special surprise. The restaurant has one of the best wine lists anywhere for Oregon vintages, and you'll be offered informed advice to make a selection. If you want to savor the fine marriage between Oregon Pinot Noir and the bounty of forest and field, book a table at the Joel Palmer House.
