Indulge for a Cause on Valentine’s Day and all of February at Quaintrelle

Portland, OR – On Wednesday, February 14th, Quaintrelle is the place for couples as chef du cuisine Bill Wallender offers delicious Valentine’s Day specials such as scallops and a rib eye for two with Oregon black truffles, in addition to the regular dinner menu. Bar manager Camille Cavan will be mixing up cocktails for two, served table-side.

New sous/pastry chef Matt Ives is serving up a chocolate dessert that not only indulges the senses but feeds the conscience as he participates in the 5th Annual Chocolate for Congo. All month long, Quaintrelle and 12 other Portland restaurants and bakeries will serve up chocolate desserts made with Theo Chocolate. Ives’ creation is a Theo Chocolate Bombé with Salted Caramel Bananas – a flourless chocolate cake with dark chocolate mousse, salted caramel bananas, and chocolate-dipped cashew brittle with coconut.

One dollar from the sale of each dessert will go to Eastern Congo Initiative, a non-profit working on grant-making and advocacy with and for the people of eastern Congo. The dessert will be available on Valentine’s Day and throughout the month of February.
