Chopped Chicken Liver with rice crackers and veggiesOwner Richard Satnick began Dick’s Kitchen as a way to share the delicious food and recipes he discovered while researching his own nutritional and dietary needs.

While studying the connections between eating habits, inflammation and other metabolism-related disorders, Satnick learned about a variety of diets, ranging from paleo to vegan to gluten-free. While Dick’s Kitchen’s menu favors a paleo diet, Satnick wants all his customers to understand that any diet that cuts down on processed food, sugars, and industrial oils creates healthier people and a healthier planet.

Dick’s Kitchen is, perhaps, the nation’s first diner to systematically and actively incorporate dietary needs into its menu by offering mouthwatering fare made from healthy, humanely raised ingredients. In fact, the servers don’t bat an eyelash when you request a special order or a modification. They encourage it because they know you want to feel good about what you eat.

Chicken liver mousse served with Dijon mustard and poached prunesCanada-born chef Aaron Barnett was formed by his experience at reference restaurants such as Lumière (Vancouver, BC), Gary Danko (SF), Olea (Portland), and 23Hoyt (Portland). His achievements include “Best New Restaurant” from Esquire as Sous Chef and menu designer at Myth in San Francisco, “Best of the Best - New Restaurants” from Palm Springs Life magazine at the tender age of 28, numerous glowing reviews from local media in every market, and most recently, playing host to the James Beard Foundation for dinner in Portland. Taking from his experiences, Aaron loves all things “hand-crafted,” which has driven him to create his own style of cooking based on his interpretations of classic dishes and love of bright, fresh, and bold flavors, in what can only be described as “Contemporary Rustic.” Aaron opened St. Jack in 2010 as an ode to the bouchons of Lyon, France. Since opening St. Jack, Aaron has received many accolades including a James Beard nomination, being named StarChefs.com’s Rising Star, as well as The Oregonian giving St. Jack their esteemed Rising Star award.

Rogue Nation Brutal IPA This is an India Pale Ale that pairs well with seafood and beef. It is a non traditional India Pale Ale with big citrusy, hop flavor and intense hop aroma. Medium-bodied with a vibrant lingering hop-bitterness that is anything but brutal. Enjoy!Rogue Ales & Spirits is an artisan varietal brewery and distillery founded in Oregon in 1988 as one of America’s first 50 microbreweries. Rogue has won over 1,000 awards for taste and quality and is available in all 50 states and 49 countries. Since 2008, Rogue has remained committed to saving the terroir of Oregon hops and barley, one acre at a time, by growing our own beer & spirits.

2009 Dundee Hills Pinot Noir2013 Willamette Valley Pinot GrisEvolution Sparkling NVFor more than 40 years, before there was an Oregon wine industry, the Sokol Blosser family has been growing grapes and creating exemplary wines. Located on a certified organic 120-acre property in Oregon’s Dundee Hills sub-appellation, Sokol Blosser has consistently captured the terroir of the region as expressed through the brilliance of its estate fruit. This resolute quest for excellence is also inherent in its environmentally-sensitive winemaking techniques, a core value for Sokol Blosser since the planting of its very first vines in 1971. The winery produces Pinot Gris, Pinot Noir, and small quantities of Single Block Pinot Noirs under its Sokol Blosser brand name. It also produces a white blend and red blend under the Evolution brand name. And this year, we will continue to pour our newest variety in the Evolution wine series Evolution Sparkling, 3rd Edition, a true, méthode champenoise, sparkling wine.

The winery is now under the care of sister and brother co-presidents Alison Sokol Blosser and Alex Sokol Blosser. Sokol Blosser Winery is entering a new millennium of winemaking, tasting, and sustainability. Visit our website to shop online, for information about visiting our new state-of-the art tasting room, and more about this award-winning vineyard.

NOTESFollowing the restaurant theme – we have listed our celebrity, head, and executive chefs, but we couldn’t have made Taste of Temple IV happen without our team of CBI sous chefs! The recipe for success for Taste of Temple IV requires our special team of “sous” chefs work-ing diligently behind the scenes, ensuring there are no missing ingredients! It is with great pride that we acknowledge these sous chefs who work seamlessly every day to make CBI delicious, delightful, and welcoming!

Congregation Beth Israel is proud to recognize every person/family who decides to create a Jewish legacy. A legacy gift includes any donation that lives on in perpetuity ensuring that CBI will be here to serve the genera-tions to come. Different reasons have motivated each of our Legacy Circle donors to choose CBI as a beneficiary of their life’s work. We are fortunate that many of our members embraced the benefit that becoming a legacy donor brought to their lives and their memory. We continue to be honored by those who are now committing gifts through endowments, trusts, wills, and estate plans. We hope you will consider joining this esteemed and ap-preciated group and let us know of your intention so that we may include you in this growing list. Development Director Jen Feldman welcomes the opportunity to discuss creating a Jewish legacy with you: (503) 222-1069 or jen@bethisrael-pdx.org.
