The very special, very Spanish night (sangria, anyone?) kicked off with an intimate VIP pre-party early in the evening. It was a chance for a few lucky, food-centric guests to get a first look at the space.
It was also an opportunity to toast John, Renee and their entire team in celebration of the newest addition to the Gorham restaurant family and what is sure to be one of the most coveted event spaces in the Northwest.
Later that evening, Plaza del Toro opened their doors a bit wider to the public, and welcomed them in to check out the space, nibble on bites from all the Gorham restaurant menus and throw back a few glasses of the good stuff. DJ Waffle spun old school records as notable foodies circled the room including Feast Portland's Mike Thelin and Carrie Welch as well as Eater PDX's Danielle Centoni.
