Irene Yoo is a Korean American food writer, recipe developer, chef, and co-owner of Brooklyn’s Orion Bar. Her work explores Korean food and drinking traditions, and the culture of gathering around the table.
It's party time at PBF and food and drink is covered with cookbook authors Farideh Sadeghin and Irene Yoo. Joined by moderator Cecily Wong, this panel delivers an ode to the accessibility, creativity, and history of two icons: hot dogs and soju.
Close out Portland Book Festival with a special edition of Soju Party, celebrating Korean food, drinking culture, and Irene Yoo’s James Beard Award-winning cookbook. Expect Han Oak favorites and anju-inspired bites alongside specialty soju + wine cocktails with CHO Wines, and plenty of reasons to raise a glass. Come eat, drink, and learn to party like a Korean. Everyone’s invited.
