Interview with Chef Allen
For the past five years, chef Allen Routt and his wife, Jessica Bagley, have owned and operated the Painted Lady in Newberg.

(This year, Zagat's Oregon survey gave the Painted Lady top rating in all three categories: food, decor and service.) We caught up recently with its buzzworthy chef to learn about the restaurant, what he's serving and what beverage he enjoys pairing with his meal.
