Piše Tjaž Mihelič, bere Igor Velše. »V letih 1992 in 1993 sem pisal dnevnik« je zapisano v začetku Zupanovega uvodnega pojasnila. Mladi pesnik se je odločil, da bo začel pisati dnevnik. Nepretenciozno, neponarejeno in niti ne vsak dan. Kako pa se s tridesetletno distanco lotiti branja? Dnevniško pisanje je nadvse intrigantna forma. Slovenska književnost je v njej dobila, če omenimo le briljant, enega najboljših romanov 20. stoletja, Kocbekovo Tovarišijo. A tu ne gre za to, da bi Zupan svoje pisanje pretresel, ga dopolnil ali iz napisanega napravil roman. Kot piše, je zapiske ponekod dopolnil s priimki v oglatih oklepajih ter kakšne dele izpustil, sicer pa jih je pretipkal v računalnik tako, kot so bili napisani tedaj. Kako se torej lotiti tovrstnega branja. Najbolj produktiven način se mi kaže skozi obrnjeno tripartitno strukturo paradigem: začne se z bralcem in nato sledita tekst in avtor. Bralec je v dnevniškem pisanju najbolj zakrita in hkrati najbolj prisotna figura. V literarni vedi lahko beremo razmišljanja, da je dnevnik pisan z mislijo, da bo nekdo zapise prebral (četudi le avtor sam v prihodnosti), morda celo z mislijo na morebitno objavo. Dnevnik kot najbolj intimno pisanje je hkrati vedno javno pisanje. Ni več ni le last avtorja, temveč last vsega sveta. In Zupan nam odgovarja tudi na to vprašanje: »Zakaj ga pišem? Da bi se iz njega česa naučil, da bi se pomiril, da bi ga bral še kdo drug in videl, kako se človek spopada s samoto […] da bi tisti, ki ga bodo mogoče brali, videli, kaj se skriva za vsemi pesmimi, ki sem jih napisal.« Tu se izrazi dvojnost, ki je prisotna v vsem dnevniku, in sicer jezik poezije in jezik dnevnika. »Mislim, da bo nekaj od tega, kar pišem, ostalo. Da bo mogoče to kdo bral […].« »Tale dnevniški jezik je kaj malo v primerjavi z jezikom poezije,« zasledimo 15. avgusta 1992. Vendar je dnevniški jezik tisto, kar je potreboval ob jeziku poezije. Kot piše v Uvodnem pojasnilu, naj bi ga k pisanju napeljal prijatelj pesnik Aleš Debeljak z argumentom, da njunemu prijatelju, tedaj že onkraj slovenskih meja uveljavljenemu Tomažu Šalamunu, manjka prav pisanje esejev. A tudi brez njihove omembe dnevnik napeljuje k tej misli, če le malo poznamo Zupanovo pot in vemo, da je prvo zbirko esejev izdal leta 1996. Dnevnik je predpriprava na tovrstno pisanje. Je čiščenje misli, prvi stik z esejističnim pisanjem, ki pa v dnevniku v začetku ne steče gladko. Morda malce zastaja in me je zato kot bralca na tem mestu prisililo, da sem knjigo odložil. Pisanje najbolj steče z 28. majem 1992, ko se avtor vrne k rednejšemu pisanju, ujame svoj tok in ga drži ne glede na kasnejša odplavanja v mrtve meandre. Takrat se njegovo pisanje ujame v ravno pravšnje razmerje med premišljevanjem o sebi, svoji poeziji, doživljanju stvarnosti in referencah na druga dela. Osrednji del zavzemajo nekakšna esejistična premišljevanja o lastni poeziji ali poeziji sicer, ki ga obdajajo številne navezave na svet literature, glasbe in slikarstva. Med drugim primerja svoj prvenec Sutre s svojim takratnim ustvarjanjem, ki je odmev dobilo v drugi pesniški zbirki Reka. Primerja svoje pisanje iz časov, preden je začel dobivati nagrade, »Sutre so čista knjiga,« piše. »Pesniku, ki piše Reko, je jasno, nekako čuti, da piše pomembno knjigo.« Zaveda se, da piše »visoko poezijo,« kot jo imenuje, bere pozitivne kritike, premišljuje o njih, izpostavlja svoje dobre pesmi, jih analizira, a vse to neponarejeno, bralci z distanco ne dobimo občutka prepotentnosti, ampak iskrenega premišljevanja. Poezija se kaže kot osebnostna določilnica, okoli katere se vrti Zupanovo dojemanje stvarnosti. Nekje zapiše, da si ne more predstavljati sveta brez književnosti. Ko piše o lastni poeziji, se v zapise preliva subtilno, a zaznavno izrazoslovje, ki je blizu njegovemu takratnemu pisanju Reke – večkrat se na primer pojavi izraz tok. O svoji poeziji pravi, da je »počasen, pulzirajoč ritem, kot ritem ogromne mogočne vode, njenega premikanja«. Poezija je zanj merilo časa, čas namreč meri »najprej v tem, kaj (je) napisal, kaj naredil«. Pisanje poezije vpliva na njegovo srečevanje z ljudmi, sklepanje prijateljstev, druženje z dekleti, ki močno vplivajo na njegovo pisanje, in nazadnje zapuščanja in odhajanja. V vseh porah življenja je. Spremlja jo vedno prisotna samota, odrešitev iz nje pa je prav tako pisanje. »Poezija je zaveznik,« piše. Vera v poezijo je neomajna, to je vera mladega človeka. Poeziji in pesniku postavlja metafizično obzorje, na katerem deluje, zaveda se sicer svojega stvarnega položaja, a to ne deluje v nasprotju z metafizičnim. Kot mladega pesnika me pisanje navdušuje in me je navdalo z ustvarjalnostjo, z močjo in vero v poezijo. Nekatere misli so bile kot moje, tako kot tudi Zupan piše, da so njegove misli sorodne Pavesejevim, ko prebira njegov dnevnik. Druga pomembna referenca, v množici drugih, so Rilkejeva Pisma mlademu pesniku. Berejo se kot dnevnik, a nosijo noto pisem mladega pesnika mlademu pesniku v nek prihodnji čas, v svojem pisanju pa iz vseh obročev besed sporoča: iskrenost! Dnevnik Uroša Zupana ima tudi dokumentarno vrednost, opremljen je s slikami in opisovanjem srečevanj mnogih umetnikov. Kulturni utrip devetdesetih zori kot mošt. Avtor sam si želi, sedaj in tudi takrat, da bi dnevnik izpričeval duh časa – zeitgeist. Morda je to precenjena želja. V dnevniku je mogoče najti omembo pravega trenutka, na primer v ljubezenskem pismu N. To je zeit, ki ga gre zares iskati v umetnosti, ki je onkraj duha in časa in scela v njem. Ta moment uspe dnevniku ujeti. In to je največji poklon. In če se ob koncu vrnemo k recepcijski paradigmi. O prav tako letos izdani pesniški zbirki Uroša Zupana je literarni kritik Muanis Sinanović zapisal, da je obravnava Zupanove poezije zašla. Morda dnevnik ponuja izhod iz zagate. Morda bom tudi jaz začel pisati dnevnik.

Piše Matjaž Zorec, bere Aleksander Golja. Alojzija Zupan Sosič, dolgoletna profesorica književnosti, ki je med drugim letos izdala pesniški prvenec, se v zanimivi hibridni knjigi loteva najosnovnejše literarne aktivnosti – branja. Knjiga z za literarnovedno delo nekoliko nenavadnim, skorajda naivnim naslovom Berem pesmi je zastavljena pomenljivo, posebej z ozirom na standardno predpostavljeno objektivnost v znanstvenih besedilih. Avtoričina metoda se sicer drži univerzitetnih in strokovnih standardov, ima številne opombe, dolgo bibliografijo, preverjene reference in teoretsko zaledje, a hkrati želi delovati onstran gole in dostikrat od literarnega življa distancirane univerzitetne sfere. Tega preseganja se loteva z nekaj, recimo temu, narativnimi razširitvami in modulacijami, med katerimi je najopaznejše personalno pisanje; Zupan Sosič se je sicer odrekla anonimnemu akademskemu vsevedju in v tekst vtkala svojo osebo, to pa deluje tako na jezikovni kot na teoretični ravni. Njena eksplikacija poteka v prvi osebi ednine, piska je tudi osebno angažirana glede te ali one teoretske linije in tudi splošnejšega pogleda na svet, v čemer lahko vidimo odmev enega od temeljev v postajanju poezije. Tako kot je lirski subjekt tako ali drugače eden od dominantnih determinant poezije, je v avtoričinem izpisovanju literarne vednosti na delu teoretski subjekt, ki ni več od teorije ločen razvrščevalec, temveč aktivno participira v njenih izsledkih. V obzorju njenega izvajanja je pomembno lociranje poezije kot v literarni produkciji zapostavljene, a za literaturo ključne forme z neštetimi možnostmi za refleksijo in tudi subverzijo tako književnosti kot človekovega širšega delovanja. To je najbolj vidno, če jo zoperstavimo romanu kot danes najbolj priljubljeni formi; ima privilegiran status, je glavni fokus uredništev in založništev ter najbolj usidran v sedanji družbeni mainstream. Tako je v tej svoji fazi dostikrat tudi fetišiziran, poblagovljen in trivializiran, zaradi česar nemalokrat le posnema literarno-marketinške vzorce in nereflektirano poustvarja razne moduse neoliberalističnih ideologij. Pesem pa zaradi svoje večje ali manjše kratkosti in kompaktnosti ter tako rekoč brezmejnih izraznih možnosti ponuja boljše poglede v delovanje današnjih političnih, družbenih, ne nazadnje planetarnih negotovosti ter tudi odprtost za spremembe. Poleg pesmi je glavna nit knjige, kot nam pove naslov, branje. Bralna kultura pada, ljudje berejo vse manj in predvsem površno, poglobljeno interpretativno branje z refleksijo pa tako rekoč izumira. Zaradi omenjenih lastnosti se prav poezija kaže kot eden od možnih načinov, kako branje spet opolnomočiti. Avtoričin osebnejši pristop k možnostim branja in interpretacije dopolnjujejo sodobne teorije, poleg tako imenovane literarne ekologije predvsem kognitivni pristop na podlagi nevroznanstvenih izsledkov, postfeminizem ter teorija spolne identitete in kvirovska teorija. S predlogi in prakso nesuhoparnega in inovativnega branja poezija tako rekoč prevzame prvenstvo v spopadanju z najbolj perečimi problemi današnjega časa. Zupan Sosič poudarja tudi pomembno vlogo knjižnih klubov pri implementaciji takšnega branja. Avtoričino apologijo poglobljenega, doživetega in inovativnega branja ter njegovo širitev tudi onstran knjižnih klubov, na primer v izobraževalni sistem na vseh ravneh, lahko seveda samo podpremo. Prav tako tudi njeno kritiko sedanjih družbenih razmer, ki s hitrimi in malimi fiksi paralizira našo vse manjšo pozornost in možnost kritičnega mišljenja, spodbuja pavšalnost in stasito zagovednost ter čedalje bolj izloča pozorno branje. Žal tem trendom prevečkrat sledi tudi literatura. Četudi bi kakšen avtoričin prikaz stanja lahko malo dopolnili, ji v širši sliki vendarle lahko pritrdimo. Isto velja glede bralnih klubov in njihovega prispevka k bogatenju branja. Mimogrede lahko opozorimo tudi na teoretske bralne klube, v katerih sodelujoči razpravljajo o ključnih teoretskih delih onstran akademije in univerze. Morda ima teorija podoben problem kot literatura; zakrnela akademskost in napiflanost aksiomatskih znanj na ravni benignega zdravega razuma, brez živega, relevantnega in predvsem dobronamernega razpravljanja … Vendarle pa bi v takšnem duhu dialoga izpostavili nastavek za možno kritiko ali dopolnitev avtoričinih izsledkov. Prva bi bila dvom o kognitivni teoriji in nevroznanosti, kakršni povzema avtorica; ne toliko o njunih izsledkih kot o pretencioznosti. Če človek bere pesem, jo seveda v natančnem in poglobljenem branju vedno bere osebno, drugače kot z osebnim izkustvom pač ne moremo dostopati do česarkoli. Literatura je dialoška umetnost, zaradi česar se naša poglobljena konzumpcija hočeš nočeš vedno premika iz naše perspektive v druge, kar jasno vodi v povečanje empatije. No, mar ni to že od pamtiveka povsem jasno; da se del možganov za empatijo aktivira, ko smo – empatični? In da žlehtnoba porodi drugo žlehtnobo. Res rabimo nevroznanstvenike in filozofe kognicij, da nam to potrdijo? Končno pa bi lahko razširili tudi koncept branja. To deloma naredi že avtorica, ko navaja, da ne zamira branje kot tako, temveč natančno branje; ne umira tekst, temveč kontekst. Dalje tudi razločuje med branjem literature in drugimi umetnostmi, ki delujejo prek drugih načinov recepcije, denimo vizualna umetnost ali gledališče, a se obenem dopolnjujejo in širijo obzorja. Lahko pa mislimo tudi v drugo smer: vsaka resna obravnava katerekoli umetnosti mora umetniško delo predvsem – prebrati. Bil je čas, ko je bila literatura kot medij marsikje prvenstvena že zaradi čisto tehnološke ravni; pisava in fizično branje kot tehnologija sta bila poglavitna načina sprejemanja. Danes so ta prvenstva prevzele druge forme, druge umetnosti in mediji, kar pa ne pomeni, da je branje izginilo. V ožjem smislu prebiranja zgolj knjig gotovo, a širše in v današnjem prvem planu predvsem videa branje ni nikoli izginilo. Prav poglobljeno branje se tako izkaže ključno tudi onstran literature. Pismenost ni bila še nikoli tako pomembna. Če bo literatura nekoč izumrla, to ne pomeni, da bo branje izginilo. Seveda pa je treba z avtorico pozvati: berimo pesmi. Če znaš prebrati pesem, znaš prebrati vse.

This is an essential listen for anyone who cherishes Portland history and wants to understand the grit it takes to survive in the current culinary landscape. In Part One, you'll hear the couple's personal perspective on navigating the current economic environment, which, as Michelle has previously stated, has led to a critical lack of funds for the historic restaurant. We dive deep into their strategies for adapting their business in the face of dwindling foot traffic and discuss their extraordinary efforts to give back to the community. Keoni and Michelle's story is one of deep family heritage and an unwavering commitment to a restaurant that is more than a century old, providing a poignant look at the struggles and sacrifices required to maintain a Portland institution.

There, he taught himself the craft, working his way up through kitchens like Union and Maria Hines' Tilth. He moved to Portland in 2007, eventually running acclaimed restaurants Carlyle and Fenouil. This success was followed by a period of intense personal and professional difficulty, including high-profile restaurant closures, a severe depression, and a series of unfulfilling jobs that left him feeling burnt out and disconnected from the food he wanted to cook. ​After hitting a low point, his partner, Silqet, urged him to stop working for others and create his own vision. With her support and help from the Small Business Development Center, he wrote a business plan and secured a loan to open their new restaurant, Daphne, in Astoria. Today, his focus is hyper-local, sourcing nearly all ingredients from within a 75-mile radius. He champions a philosophy of simplicity, letting high-quality ingredients speak for themselves, and aims to educate the community on the exceptional produce, meats, and seafood their own region provides. www.daphneastoria.com @restaurant.daphne   Right at the Fork is made possible by:  DU/ER: www.shopduer.com/fork Zupan's Markets: www.zupans.com  RingSide SteakHouse: www.RingSideSteakhouse.com  Portland Food Adventures: www.PortlandFoodAdventures.com

Zakaj nam zdravniki za boljše zdravje priporočajo gibanje, spanje in ustrezno prehrano? To ni zgolj floskula, ampak se del odgovora skriva tudi v mitohondrijih, ki so kot nekakšne elektrarne v naših celicah, ki iz hrane proizvajajo energijo za naše telo. A mitohondriji niso ključni le za naše osnovno preživetje, temveč so povezani z različnimi boleznimi in celo s staranjem. Imajo svoj dedni zapis, ki se skoraj izključno prenaša po materi, s čimer so zanimivi tudi za arheologe in forenzike.

ORIGINAL POST: Tyler Malek is the Chef and co-owner of one of Portland's now most iconic brands and restaurants, Salt & Straw.  Now with locations cornering the continental US, Tyler and his cousin Kim have made some serious noise in the ice cream world. In this episode, Tyler talks about the longshot pitch to Disneyland to be their official ice cream vendor, and how quickly the folks at Disney decided they wanted Portland's Salt & Straw vibe over some of the big, more well-known ice cream brands, like Ben & Jerry's.   Tyler talks about the process of building the store and all that was involved with that with the input from Disney. Also, Tyler talks about the business of building and using the Salt & Straw brand to its advantage, and what that has meant for growth.  We cover sampling, flavors, staffing, as well as some of the places Tyler loves to go in Portland right now. This is our third interview with Tyler and that's because he's one of the good guys who has represented the Portland psyche so well.   Right at the Fork is made possible by:  DU/ER: www.shopduer.com/fork Zupan's Markets: www.zupans.com  RingSide SteakHouse: www.RingSideSteakhouse.com  Portland Food Adventures: www.PortlandFoodAdventures.com

We thought it would be good to have Greg Higgins, one of Portland's most notable and historically important chefs, expand on the letter he wrote to Portland that went viral about the perilous state of his restaurant.  As if the challenges in the restaurant industry aren't heavy enough, downtown businesses are facing a huge loss of tourism dollars, a fraction of office workers, years of a bad reputation, and construction problems, just to mention a few.   The good news is that the public reacted swiftly and positively, and bookings at Higgins swelled and the short term outlook is better. We discuss what must happen in the long term, and the prospects thereof, in this interview.   Want to help?  Book a reservation not only at Higgins, but any Portland restaurant downtown you've been thinking of visiting.  DO IT.     www.higginsportland.com   Right at the Fork is supported by:  Zupan's Markets: www.zupans.com  RingSide SteakHouse: www.RingSideSteakhouse.com  Portland Food Adventures: www.PortlandFoodAdventures.com

A wonderfully summery and tasty podcast with Lauren Wilson, who shares with us her journey from moving to Vermont and uncovering her kryptonite -- an ice cream maker in the restaurant where she worked.  She immediately started making ice cream and found that others loved her flavors.  That led to a move back to Seattle, where she developed a wholesale business, accomplishing getting her product into 30 grocery stores in the area.  That was a tough business model.   She eventually wanted to try opening a scoop shop in Portland, but her plans were scuttled by a thing called a pandemic.  So, now she's in the midst of writing an cream recipe book, for which she's seeking out publishers.   We enjoyed our talk about her journey as well as how childhood memories play into an almost universal love of ice cream.  Plus, some favorite flavors!!!!   Check out Lauren's Insta!   @sweetlosicecream on Instagram     Right at the Fork is supported by:  Zupan's Markets: www.zupans.com  RingSide SteakHouse: www.RingSideSteakhouse.com  Portland Food Adventures: www.PortlandFoodAdventures.com

Lisa Schroeder, chef/owner at Mother's Bistro, now in its 25th year in Portland, joins us on the podcast to discuss the state of the industry and what she's doing to keep moving forward at the restaurant.  That includes a new New York Deli menu.  Lisa explains that while there used to be real Jewish deli food in Portland, there's a vacuum for a real pastrami sandwich and other great dishes that needed to be filled, and she's doing it.  From homemade rye bread to artisan latkes and rugelach, she's doing what she does so well.   Also discussed, service in restaurants and how that affects the industry as a whole. Why service may be lacking, and whether it's fixable, or whether customers even care.   It's always a pleasure to have Lisa on the podcast and this episode is no exception.  With her experience and hard work, her insights are always interesting to absorb.   https://www.mothersbistro.com/   Right at the Fork is supported by:  Zupan's Markets: www.zupans.com  RingSide SteakHouse: www.RingSideSteakhouse.com  Portland Food Adventures: www.PortlandFoodAdventures.com

It's summer, and that means it's Hog Dog Season...  So here's a look back to our conversation with Michael Mudd from earlier this year.   We venture out to Manzanita for this podcast, and take the opportunity to chat with Michael Mudd, the proprietor of Manzanita Mudd Dogs. Whether you have been to or plan on visiting Manzanita, the story of how the iconic Manzanita Mudd Dogs started to how Michael and his brother Brad took over the operation of the business from their parents, Jim and Lynn Mudd, is an awesome story. Michael talks about how and why his parents started serving hot dogs from their driveway in Manzanita, and how that led to the Mudd Nick Foundation, which provides kids with wonderful enriching opportunities to go to camps and travel worldwide through their charitable efforts.  It was truly a team effort to find that purpose, and now the foundation and hot dog business is going strong, evolving and thriving. Hearing Michael's recollection of leaving the corporate world to make authentic Chicago Dogs is something so many of us would envy, and we'll get to hear how that's worked out for Michael. Manzanita Mudd Dogs serves more Chicago dogs than any other place on the West Coast.  They can be found close to the water on Laneda Avenue in Manzanita, or here: https://www.manzanitamudddogs.com/.  The Mudd Nick Foundation can be found here: https://muddnickfoundation.com/ Right at the Fork is supported by:  Zupan's Markets: www.Zupans.com  RingSide Steakhouse:  www.RingSideSteakhouse.com  Portland Food Adventures: www.PortlandFoodAdventures.com

We look back at our January 2025 conversation with Frank Squillo of Wanda's Cafe & Bakery. ORIGINAL POST:   Frank Squillo has had quite a storied career, but as he points out in this episode, there are definite parallels between his career as a radio host and now, as co-owner of the storied Wanda's Cafe and Bakery, a mainstay of the North Oregon Coast that he purchased with his husband in 2019 and has operated since. We talk about what it takes to run a successful restaurant on the Oregon Coast - the key ingredients in the business and in the recipes.  We'll even go into the things he's learned and how he deals with challenging situations and challenging people.   We talk a bit about life at the coast, the places Frank enjoys most and his involvement in local politics and theater. Frank shares some anecdotes about his interviews from his radio days with Joe Rogan and his favorite guest, Sammy Hagar, and why both of them are great memories for him.  He even talks about what it took to interview people who really didn't have any interest in being in front of a mic for an interview.  Take a listen and find out more about one of the gentlemen behind the scenes of what host Chris Angelus refers to as a coastal icon, Wanda's Cafe and Bakery.  https://wandascafe.com/   Right at the Fork is supported by:  Zupan's Markets: www.zupans.com  RingSide SteakHouse: www.RingSideSteakhouse.com  Portland Food Adventures: www.PortlandFoodAdventures.com

Chef Allen Routt and his wife Jessica just celebrated their 20th year as proprietors of Newberg's The Painted Lady.  It's been a long, focused run to accomplish such a feat in this challenging restaurant world. Allen's interest in food started in Virginia as a boy, out in the yard and in the forest, right to his family kitchen.  His Mom and grandmas influenced his keen interest.  Staying at his grandmother's place in Florida, he found the diversity of ingredients intriguing.     His food career started in a Mexican restaurant, then a storied chef at a nearby Brazilian restaurant wrote him a recommendation to go to CIA, and from there the path was created.  Back in Florida, he met Jessica, and they made their way through various spots back to Oregon, where they saw a fantastic opportunity in the Willamette Valley.  This a fun episode that fills in some of the blanks on Allen's history and philosophies. https://www.thepaintedladyrestaurant.com/about @paintedladynewberg   Right at the Fork is supported by:  Zupan's Markets: www.Zupans.com  RingSide Steakhouse:  www.RingSideSteakhouse.com  Portland Food Adventures: www.PortlandFoodAdventures.com
