Chef Crush

TONY @ Serratto (503) 221-1195
2112 NW Kearney Street, Portland, Oregon, 97210

Why he’s dreamy:
Housemade tagliatelle in a sinfully rich ragu of wild boar, red wine, tomato and herbs, with orange gremolata…A truly crave-inducing dish that will have you crushing hard after just one bite. This tattooed hottie is our current bad boy chef crush due to the speed with which his inked arms sharpen knives (oooooh!) within earshot. And this chef worth his salt knows the best way to a Crush Girl’s heart is with a perfect salad- simple greens, caesar, or beets with chevre- to prime our palates for the food flirting to come.

WILL, TROY, and SCOTT @ Lovely Hula Hands (503) 445-9910
4057 N. Mississippi, Portland, Oregon, 97227

Why they’re dreamy:
Porcini mushroom and swiss chard ravioli with duck brodo, green garlic, and parmesan. Simply divine! Not to mention the best caesar salad (love those croutons!) we’ve tasted in recent memory. CG1 just couldn’t make up her mind which of these adorable cooks to single out, so Lovely Hula Hands scores our first multiple chef crush. Gracious servers, hottie cooks, comfy-shabby-chic surroundings, and delightful food…LHH never disappoints. And this may be the most crushable kitchen crew in Portland…
