Welcome to - EDSO
         Celebrating 40 Years 1982-2022

   The group was founded in 1982 to help and guide those who would like a better understanding, appreciation and interest of the exciting world of gastronomy (the art and science of good eating).

Living in a recognized "breadbasket" and viticulture region of the world, we Oregonians delight in and expound upon our fortunate epicurean heritage. The society is wholly dedicated to "good fun, good food and drink" consumed from the banquet table of friendship and camaraderie.

This goal is reached through dining at the area's finest restaurants, potlucks and barbeques at members' homes, catered banquets at local meeting facilities and excursions around the Pacific Northwest. Climb aboard for a gastronomic ride of fun, frivolity and feasting.

(Most events are held in the Portland, OR Metro Area).
