Hotel Rose welcomes Bottle + Kitchen

Pineapple Hospitality’s Portland Hotel Offers Destination for Comfort Food with a Global Twist

Hotel Rose welcomes Bottle + KitchenHotel Rose is announcing the opening of Bottle + Kitchen, a gastropub serving globally inspired and locally refined comfort food on Friday, June 6, 2014. Bottle + Kitchen features a flavorful but approachable menu, combining bright flavors from all over the world with a Pacific Northwest flair.

“Inspiration comes from every aspect of my life, and it begins with my rustic upbringing in New Zealand and continues with my travels around the world, eating off the land,” said Executive Chef Ron Baker. “From my uncle’s sheep farm to my time off the coast of the Pacific Ocean fishing and diving for seafood. I draw inspiration from what’s around me and I want to share this inspiration with my guests. I want my guests to be inspired by what they’re eating, to share with each other, and to leave feeling satisfied and happy.”

Each culinary creation at Bottle + Kitchen starts with the freshest ingredients from local farmers and ranchers, including organic produce from Gathering Together Farms, in Philomath, Ore., and chicken from Kookoolan Farms, a family farm in Yamhill, Ore. In addition, Bottle + Kitchen carefully selects seafood approved by Monterey Bay Seafood Watch.
