About the Participating Partners

Variety spread from Oyatsupan Bakers

Oyatsupan

Oyatsupan Bakers has established itself as one of the country’s most authentic and beloved Japanese bakeries since opening its doors in 2016 in Beaverton, Oregon. While many people associate sushi, ramen, and tempura with Japanese cuisine, bread and pastries are also an integral part of the country’s food culture. At Oyatsupan Bakers, founder Hiroyuki Horie and his skilled team build upon this tradition by baking everything from scratch using Hiroyuki’s extensively researched recipes several times daily to ensure peak freshness and flavor. 

Umami Café

Our very own Umami Café will be open during Savor Japan, offering a thoughtfully curated menu of beverages, snacks, and sweets to enjoy during your visit. We’re serving coffee – hot and cold brew – from our local partners at Portland Coffee Roasters, alongside our traditional tea offerings from Jugetsudo and a rotating selection of seasonal teas from Jasmine Pearl. Guests can also enjoy a wide variety of snacks and sweets from our partners at Behind the Museum Café, Oyatsupan Bakery, St. Honoré, and Yume Confections.
