Naomi Pomeroy’s Final Restaurant, a Homey French Bistro in Pop-Up Form, Opens Tonight
The last restaurant project from Naomi Pomeroy — the late chef of Beast fame who deeply impacted Portland’s dining scene across more than two decades — will live on. The planned restaurant in the former Woodsman Tavern space opens tonight, August 15, as pop-up L’Échelle.
