In light of Portland chef Naomi Pomeroy's recent James Beard Award win, Oregonian critic Michael Russell revisits her restaurant, Beast: "Like that rock band that's still on the road, it can be uncomfortable to see your idols growing older. But who would want to prevent a new fan from catching the show?...Other restaurants might be doing food that's more exciting, inventive or technically sound, but Beast is still its own, rare breed." 2.5 stars.
