As it happens, after last night's official James Beard in Oregon gala celebration at the MAC, Eater PDX teamed up with Clyde Common and the Ace Hotel for the earliest "afterparty" ever — taking over downtown's Cleaners for an industry event toasting current semifinalists, past winners and nominees, and all who make the Portland food scene the constant, neverending party that the NYT loves so well.
Check out the party pictures in the gallery above, and special thanks to Clyde Common and chef Chris DiMinno, Ace Hotel, Whole Foods, Watershed Communications, Beefeater, Montinore Estate, and Oakshire Brewing for making it all happen.
