RATF Classic: #290 Cameron Lee Dunlap - Morchella

With the news that Morchella was named as one of the Top 50 New Restaurants in America by Bon Appetit, we thought it important to go back to September of 2021... just weeks before Morchella opened up and our conversation with Cameron Lee Dunlap. Fresh off the heels of Cameron's excitement about his first mention in EaterPDX, we took it upon ourselves to host Cameron for the first time on a podcast. Moving from the chef role at The Fireside, a second stint there, Cameron has gathered a team to open Morchella, slated to open its doors in mid-October, 2021. His first restaurant to which he can lay claim has his own will feature foraged edible food sourced by his staff. and others The restaurant will be built with a particular focus on quality of life for its employees, who will all be wearing numerous hats. Cameron and Chris talk about the sustainability of social-forward restaurants, as well as his experiences at other restaurants, and which chefs he's watching in Portland.
