Couple started Deda’s Bakery with high hopes; now it’s poised to close

Reactions poured in fast and heartfelt to Catherine Misener’s Facebook post about Deda’s Bakery.

Misener and her husband, Chris Misener, started a wholesale baking business in early 2012. They sold Whoopie Pies, mousse pudding parfait and biscotti to downtown’s Vancouver Food Co-op. Shortly before the co-op closed in 2014, the bakery added the Fisher’s Landing New Seasons Market as a client. By summer 2014, New Seasons’ bakery buyer told the couple their products would be added to all Portland-area stores.

Food & Drink: Finally, great Chinese comes to the Couv

Is there some rule that we can only have one type of Asian cuisine in Vancouver at a time, and pho won? This is what I’ve been thinking since I moved here five years ago. I’ve longed for a Chinese restaurant as good as Shandong in Northeast Portland, so I can have my Jewish Christmas Chinese meal on this side of the river (especially if it snows).

My hope was renewed when I heard that the team behind Portland’s highly praised Duck House opened a restaurant called Szechuan Brothers in the strip mall with Chuck’s Produce, in the space formerly occupied by Mar’s Inn. The three owners — Harvey Liu, Sammy Woo and former Duck House Chef, Yuchow Yao — aren’t blood brothers, but rather a group of “brothers” from other mothers.
