Workshop Series at The Sou’wester
Let’s Make a Sandwich with Tommy Habetz & Jason Cohen
Join Tommy Habetz, of Portland’s Bunk Sandwiches and Pizza Jerk, for an afternoon of sandwich philosophy, sandwich construction, and sandwich eating. Working in one of the Sou’wester kitchens with both fresh local ingredients and the sort of things that anyone might have handy in their own kitchen, we’ll learn how to make one Bunk classic, and also develop and write the recipe for a brand new sandwich of our own.
Hailing from the kitchens of Mario Batali and Bobby Flay, Tommy Habetz joined forces with Nick Wood in 2008 to start Bunk Sandwiches. Made with high-quality ingredients, Bunk sandwiches are creative and comforting, satisfying and delicious. Its signature sandwiches – such as the Pork Belly Cubano, the Meatball Parmiagiano Hero, and the Pulled Pork with Apple Cabbage Slaw – have garnered national media attention from the likes of The Food Network, Food & Wine Magazine, and Travel + Leisure. Bunk has since expanded to five locations in Portland (as well as outposts in the Moda Center and Providence Park). In November of 2015, Tommy also opened Pizza Jerk, a New Haven style pizza joint in the Cully neighborhood of Portland. Pizza Jerk was named one of Bon Appetit’s “Best New Restaurants of 2016.”
Jason Cohen is an author, journalist and food writer whose work has appeared in such publications as Portland Monthly, Eater, the New York Times, Texas Monthly, and Street Roots. He wrote the first chapter of his most recent book, This is The Noise That Keeps Me Awake (co-authored with the band Garbage) at the Sou’wester.
