The Joel Palmer House Restaurant

The Czarnecki family purchased The Joel Palmer House in May 1996. Their lifelong desire was to combine great mushroom hunting with fine wine. Naturally, there could be no other place but the Wine Country of Oregon. Chef Christopher Czarnecki is proud to be carrying on the family tradition as 4th generation restaurateur and chef. The cuisine revolves around wild mushrooms and truffles, which we gather ourselves and with friends. We have always striven to obtain locally raised ingredients in our cooking, and we use many locally produced greens, herbs, and vegetables. Frequently we will use ingredients found in the cuisines of Mexico, China, Thailand, Poland, and India, so we call our cooking, "freestyle". And, of course, we are working hard to create dishes that match the glorious wines of Oregon, especially Pinot Noir, Pinot Gris, and Chardonnay.
