Cacio e Pepe Tarot joins Roux at The Hoxton for an evening of mini tarot readings with co-creator and artist Danielle Mainas. A VIP ticket will get you early access to the secret apartment room with your custom tarot pull, a tote with some fun surprises, a mystery cookbook, and w**e tasting from Rubato Wines 🍷 Come pull up a chair and get a little taste of destiny. ✨

Cacio e Pepe Tarot is a 78-card tarot deck that reimagines the traditional tarot entirely through food. Co-created by artist Danielle Mainas, writer Megan Morris and creative powerhouse Lindsey Newton, the deck began with a simple idea: food is a language we already know. Every dish carries memory, symbolism, desire and story, making food an intuitive bridge into the archetypes of the tarot.

So excited to be kicking off the Roux Weekend at PAMANA | FILIPINO AMERICAN EATERY (inside The Hoxton) with owner Geri Leung Bubu Arare.

Geri is the co-owner and creative force behind Pamana, the Filipino-American restaurant she runs with her husband, chef Ethan Leung. Together, they’ve built Pamana around family, food, heritage, and the idea of carrying something forward.

Before Pamana, Geri and Ethan ran the beloved Baon Kainan food cart and are soon growing into their second location in the former Expatriate space!

We’re excited to start the weekend with the people who make Portland’s food community special.
