JinJu Patisserie, and chef Timothy Wastell win James Beard awards
Why it matters: Rose City's continued presence in recent years at the awards, which honor excellence in food, wine, baking and hospitality, cements its status as one of America's most innovative food cities.
The latest: JinJu Patisserie — known for its weekend specials like hazelnut-chocolate kouign-amann, matcha red bean pain suisse and extra-flaky, twice-baked croissants — won for Outstanding Bakery.
In an acceptance speech, pastry chefs Jin Caldwell and Kyurim "Q" Lee dedicated the win to the Portland community for "showing us love since day one" when they opened in 2019.
What they're saying:"Portland has opened the door wide open to us," Caldwell told Axios Chicago in an interview backstage.
Plus: Timothy Wastell of Amity-based winery Antica Terra secured the win for Best Chef — Northwest and Pacific.
Wastell, who previously worked at Portland's former Old Salt Marketplace, beat out two other Oregon-based contenders: Nodoguro 's Ryan Roadhouse and Josh Dorcak of Ashland's MÄS, who have both received nominations in the past.
Fun fact: The James Beard Foundation is named in honor of the iconic Portland-born food writer and chef.
Judges passed on Mount Tabor's French-inspired bistro Coquine for Frasca Food and Wine, a Boulder, Colorado-based Northern Italian eatery.
Coquine chef Katy Millard has been recognized by the awards several times in the past for her commitment to seasonality and her signature everyday-style cooking.
Scotch Lodge, the Central Eastside whisky-focused cocktail bar with a top-shelf food menu to boot, lost out to Chicago-based Kumiko, for Outstanding Bar, one of three new beverage categories that debuted this year.

Zach Bryan's three concerts at East Rutherford, NJ's MetLife Stadium this summer may be his last in the Tri-state for the foreseeable future. 'This will be one of the last shows we announce,' Bryan shared on Instagram, after announcing his September concert at Notre Dame in March. 'Thank you guys for understanding the boys and me taking time away from the road. Couldn't go without having some of the most talented people I know play with me out at Notre Dame. Love you guys and feel more blessed by the day.' And, while we're mourning the soon-to-be end of Bryan's live run, one thing is clear: if you want to see the 'Great American Bar Scene' singer live with special guests Kings of Leon, now is the time to grab tickets for his July 18-20 shows at the Giants and Jets stadium. At the time of publication, the lowest price we could find on tickets for the trio of gigs was $161 including fees on Vivid Seats. Other shows have seats starting anywhere from $203 to $209 including fees. Can't wait to sing along to 'Oak Island,' Burn, Burn, Burn,' 'I Remember Everything,' 'Quittin' Time,' 'Revival' and so many more classics live? You're in the right place, Zach Pack.

According to Set List FM, here's what he took to the stage with some of his well-known buddies at the City of Brotherly Love concert. 01.) 'Overtime' 02.) 'Open the Gate' 03.) 'God Speed' 04.)

'Revival' (with Shane Gillis, Bruce Springsteen and The Lumineers) Zach Bryan new music The 28-year-old released his fifth studio album 'The Great American Bar Scene' on Independence Day 2024. Clocking in at 63 minutes — yet never even coming close to wearing out its welcome — the earnest, warts-and-all singer delivers more of his no-frills, middle-American poetry that celebrates life's small pleasures and devastating heartbreaks. After a few plays, our team fell in love with the spoken word, chills-inducing lead track 'Lucky Enough (Poem)' as well as the harmonica-heavy 'The Great American Bar Scene' and rousing Springsteen-esque 'American Nights.' The show-stopping 'Oak Island,' twinkly 'Bass Boat' and the Springsteen duet 'Sandpaper' also stand out. However, 'Towers,' a hair-raising gospel tune, towers above the rest of the album. Fingers crossed, it becomes a tour staple complete with a choir. Want to hear for yourself? You can give 'The Great American Bar Scene' a spin here. More recently, he's dropped seven singles — 'Blue Jean Baby,' 'Rattlesnake,' 'Dear Miss,' 'Memphis: The Blues,' 'Streets of London,' 'River Washed Hair' and 'A Song For You' — that run the gamut of human emotion. Click here to find them all on Spotify. Kings Of Leon The Followill brothers are headliners in their own right. Kings Of Leon — known for mega hits 'Sex On Fire,' 'Use Somebody' and 'Pyro' among others — took their latest album 'Can We Please Have Fun' on the road in 2024 and played arenas and amphitheaters all over North America. If you want to catch up with their new stuff or listen to their all-timer classics once again, you can find Kings Of Leon's entire discography here.

If your European summer tour happens to bring you to the Northern European region, we've rounded up both traditional spots and local city goers' favorites to make the most of the city. Just a couple of weeks ago, Amsterdam was in full celebration mode as it rang in its 750th anniversary this year (officially on October 27). An annual gathering, the Celebration of the Ring — what locals described as a 'rave mixed with official wedding ceremonies, block parties and a food festival' — took place on A10 Ring Road and the entire region was buzzing with good energy. Whether you're looking for a party, a foodie who learns the ways of a new region by diving headfirst into local flavors (like Dutch classics bitterballen or pickled herring) or a beer enthusiast who wants to be immersed into the rich history of the iconic Dutch brand, Heineken, Amsterdam has more than enough to offer. In our second city guide for the city, we curated a list that defies tourist traps and expected haunts. Dive into can't-miss restaurants, bars, cafes, stores and more below.
