Ropa Vieja

Experience the delicious authenticity of Ropa Vieja at Bistro Cubano

By Active Media Staff

Ropa vieja, derived from the Spanish term meaning “old clothes,” is a dish celebrated with regional variations across Latin America, the Philippines, and Spain. Typically featuring stewed beef and tomatoes with a base of sofrito, its origins trace back to Spain where it holds a significant place in culinary heritage and is recognized as one of Cuba’s national dishes. The name “ropa vieja” likely stems from its historical use of repurposing leftovers from previous meals.

Historically, this dish finds its earliest roots among the Sephardic Jews of the Iberian Peninsula. Originating as a slow-cooked stew known as “handrajos,” reminiscent of the Spanish word “andrajos,” it was traditionally prepared for

consumption during the observance of Shabbat. Over time, the dish traversed regions, spreading to North Africa and the Canary Islands of Spain.

Immigrants from the Canary Islands are credited with bringing ropa vieja to the Americas, where it first appeared in Cuba around 1857. Despite its Spanish origins, it has become deeply ingrained in Cuban cuisine, representing a culinary fusion of diverse cultural influences. Today, ropa vieja stands as a symbol of cultural exchange and heritage, cherished as a quintessential Cuban national dish.

Our chefs meticulously craft this beloved Cuban classic, infusing it with authentic ingredients and traditional techniques passed down through generations. From the tender, slowcooked beef to the aromatic sofrito base, every element of our Ropa Vieja pays homage to its Spanish origins while embracing the unique nuances of Cuban cuisine. Whether you’re a seasoned aficionado or a newcomer eager to explore new culinary horizons, we promise an unforgettable dining experience that will transport you to the sun-drenched streets of Havana. Join us at Bistro Cubano and let your taste buds revel in the irresistible allure of Ropa Vieja — a dish that embodies the essence of Cuba’s culinary legacy.

OREGON BLACK HISTORY SPOTLIGHT: JOE LILLARD

Hoaxes & Hilaria

April Fools’ Day through the ages

By Donovan Darling, Staff Writer

Gregorian Calendar

April Fools’ Day is often credited to the calendar reform of 1582 in France, during the transition from the Julian to the Gregorian calendar. Before this change, the new year began with the spring equinox around April 1, consistent with traditions in other cultures such as the Hindu calendar.

However, with the adoption of the Gregorian calendar and the shifting of New Year’s Day to January 1, the observance of the new year got complicated. Some people were unaware or just refused to change and continued to celebrate the new year in late March through April 1, and these people were subjected to jests and pranks and mockingly called “April fools.”

A popular prank played back then involved placing paper fish on the backs of unsuspecting victims and referring to them as “poisson d’avril” (April fish), a term which supposedly symbolized both the innocence of a young, easily caught fish and that person’s gullibility. From there, a tradition of good-humored tricks, pranks and mischief began.

Hilaria in Rome

April Fools’ Day’s origins have also been credited to festivals like Hilaria in ancient Rome, celebrated by followers of the cult of Cybele. Hilaria, “joyful” in Latin, involved disguises and mockery, possibly inspired by Egyptian mythology. Another theory suggests a tie to the vernal equinox, with nature’s unpredictable weather fooling people.

The tradition spread in Britain during the 18th century, with Scotland adding a two day celebration. The first day, “hunting

the gowk,” sent people on fake errands (gowk meaning cuckoo bird, a symbol for a fool). This was followed by Tailie Day, featuring pranks on people’s butts such as pinning fake tails or “kick me” signs on them.

Modern Day

Nowadays April Fools’ Day has become a playground for elaborate hoaxes. Newspapers, TV stations and websites will often create outrageous fictional claims to fool their audiences. In 1957, the BBC reported a record spaghetti crop in Switzerland, complete with footage of noodles being harvested from trees. In 1985, Sports Illustrated published a fake article about a pitcher named Sidd Finch throwing over 168 mph.

In 1992, NPR had a Richard Nixon impersonator announce a presidential run. In 1996, Taco Bell announced the purchase of Philadelphia’s Liberty Bell, renaming it the Taco Liberty Bell. And lastly, in 1998, Burger King advertised a “Left-Handed Whopper.” Google, on the other hand, has now become known for its annual pranks, from a “telepathic search” to turning Google Maps into Pac Man.

Cows, Racing, and Western Wonderland

The history of Alpenrose Dairy

By Robert Matsumura, Contributing Writer

Pony rides? Baseball? Go kart racing? A person unfamiliar with the history of Alpenrose Dairy might frown in confusion at the mention of such activities in relationship to a dairy, but for those of us fortunate enough to have grown up in the Portland area during the last half of the 20th century, the name Alpenrose conjures up so much more than just dairy products.

It all began in 1896 when Florian Cadonau, a Swiss immigrant, moved to Oregon with his wife Agnes. The couple purchased a dairy at 35th and Vermont (known then as Hoffman Road) and started delivering milk to customers via horse-drawn buggy. At the time, many Swiss immigrants were moving to Portland due to the state’s fertile land and temperate climate. So similar were Oregon and Switzerland in this respect that in 1912, Paul Ritter, the Swiss Ambassador to the United States, while touring the state called Oregon “a second, but a larger Switzerland.”

In 1916, Henry Cadonau, Florian’s son, along with his wife Rosina (daughter of the Swiss consul to Portland) took over the family business. Henry and Rosina established their own farm nearby at 45th and Vermont which they named Alpenrose Dairy. The next few decades saw Alpenrose expand its operations, thriving while other competing dairies fell prey to mergers and consolidations. However, in 1943 a fire destroyed a barn and other equipment, and the decision was made to relocate Alpenrose to its present location on Shattuck Road. For years the Alpenrose delivery truck was a common sight in Portland neighborhoods, delivering milk in glass bottles straight to the milk box at one’s front door. At its height, Alpenrose had 50 delivery trucks and 35,000 customers.

It was during the 1950s when Henry’s grandsons were playing baseball too near Rosina’s rose garden (and trampling some of her plants) that she tasked her husband with building a baseball field for the boys. It wasn’t long before the local Little League was playing there also, and dugouts, lights, and a scoreboard were subsequently added. In the following years two more fields were constructed, and Alpenrose became known for its excellent baseball facilities. For a number of years Alpenrose Field even hosted the Little League Softball World Series which was broadcast on ESPN.

As it turned out, the baseball fields were just the beginning of Alpenrose’s involvement in the community. A hundred Shetland ponies were purchased by the family shortly thereafter, and pony rides were offered to children visiting the dairy. The Cadonaus also brought the ponies to local events — making it possible for numerous children to experience their first horseback ride. Alpenrose trotted out their ponies to represent the dairy in many city parades as well.

Soon baseball and ponies were not the only attractions drawing people to Alpenrose. Uncle Ray, the father of Rod Birkland — a cousin of the Cadonau boys — being mechanically-minded, came up with the idea of a quarter-midget racing track. It wasn’t long before the idea became a reality, and child-sized race cars were zooming around a track a quarter-mile in length, set in a natural bowl shaped area with seating for up to 500 spectators. In addition to the midget racing track, a velodrome facility was added in 1967 for bicycle racing. Carl Cadonau Sr. was sold the idea by the owner of Kissler’s Cyclery, a longtime bicycle shop in Southwest Portland. At the time the Pan American games needed a location for cycling trials. The Alpenrose Velodrome was one of the first constructed in the U.S. for that purpose, and with the steepest bank of any outdoor velodrome in the world, it drew enthusiasts from around the globe.

With the popularity of the aforementioned facilities, the Cadonaus created a final addition to their burgeoning recreational wonderland — Dairyville. A dairy-themed village with Old Weststyle storefronts, the charming attraction featured a doll museum, a harness-maker’s shop, an ice cream parlor, a music shop, and a 600-seat opera house with a Skinner pipe organ (now located in Portland’s Keller Auditorium). For decades, Dairyland was the nexus of a plethora of community events, ranging from “Sunday Fundays” featuring kite flying and frog races to visits from Rusty Nails, a popular clown with a local television show for children. From trapeze acts to chariot racing, Alpenrose grew from just a local attraction to a major amusement venue for the entire region.

Rosina Cadonau became known simply as “Grandma” to generations of fourthgraders who field-tripped to Alpenrose to learn the operations of a dairy. “Swiss Miss” taught the children how to milk a cow and then escorted them across the street for ice cream and cookies baked by “Grandma.”

The winter holiday season saw Alpenrose transform into a magical place. Christmas in Dairyville featured Storybook Lane, an elaborate display with live animal displays and 300 Christmas trees set in a miniature town. Each year 400 volunteers gathered to set up and host this

traditional event that drew thousands of families from around the area.

Today, Alpenrose Dairy remains in operation, but Dairyville is closed. The race tracks and sports fields, too, face an uncertain future. A dispute between family members that ended in litigation resulted in Alpenrose being sold to the Kent, Washington-based Smith Brothers Farms. Smith Brothers continue to operate the dairy under the Alpenrose name. In July of 2021, items from the former Storybook Lane and Dairyville were sold at auction, bringing to a close one of Portland’s most cherished cultural treasures.

For those of us who grew up in Portland with the good fortune to partake in the sporting events, pony rides, fireworks, and holiday fun that was Alpenrose, we will forever miss this magical place. But we should all thank the Cadonau family for their generosity, decades of hard work, and a community spirit that transformed a regular dairy into a place that will reside in our memories forever!

CREATING JOY FOR CHILDREN FIGHTING CRITICAL ILLNESS

My name is Indie. I am 6 years old.

My wish was to be a princess. I love putting on princess outfits, going in the backyard and belting out my favorite songs. In fact, my neighbors knew when I got sick with cancer because they didn’t hear me singing in the backyard anymore.

After treatment, my wish brought me to Bibbidi Bobbidi Boutique at the Walt Disney World® Resort. It was a total surprise. It brought me to this very good place where I wanted to be for two years. It felt like I was in the world where princesses live. I loved it very much!

My wish also created a special core memory for my family as we were watching the fireworks over the castle. I wanted to show my mom and dad how happy I felt, so I took a glow stick and made the shape of a cancer ribbon to wave high. It showed me that fighting cancer gives me power.

Today, I’m asking you to support me in donating so we can share that renewed strength with future wish kids.

Let’s show other kids in our community what can happen when a group of caring people rally around them to make dreams come true. Donate today in support of local, life-changing wishes, like mine.

“A Bug’s Life” (1998)

“Hey, waiter, I’m in my soup.” I saw this in the theater when I was a mere 11 years old, and it was and remains a fantastic family movie. Full of adventure, comedy and romance, this is an early yet masterly work from John Lasseter — writer (and sometimes director) of movies such as “Toy Story” 1-4 and “Cars.” The story follows an oddball klutzy ant who accidentally destroys the food supply used as a bribe for a group of bully grasshoppers. Rather than pay double the food or be destroyed, Flik (Dave Foley) goes looking for recruits to fight the grasshoppers. With a star-studded cast including Kevin Spacey, Julia Louis-Dreyfus, Denis Leary and many more. A great movie full of sunshine and nature! Rated G.

“Ferris Bueller’s Day Off” (1986)

“Bueller? Bueller?

Bueller? Bueller?”

From writer-director John Hughes, the unforgettable Ferris Bueller (Matthew Broderick) is a happy-go-lucky high school senior in the suburbs of Chicago. An inquisitive and clever rulebreaker, Ferris schemes his way out of school on a perfect spring day. He enlists his best friend Cameron Frye (Alan Ruck), a neurotic pessimist, and girlfriend Sloane Peterson (Mia Sara), rebellious and equally clever. They embark on a daylong adventure — stealing Cameron’s father’s priceless Ferrari convertible, much to his anxiety — and crashing a parade, a baseball game, a fancy lunch, and the local sights, all the while avoiding parents, Ferris’s jealous sister Jeanie, gossiping school kids, and the high school principal, Ed Rooney (Jeffrey Jones), who’s hellbent on catching Ferris. This is a paragon of “quirky comedy” and a great reminder to go with the flow and have fun. Rated PG-13 for strong language and mature content.

“The Wizard of Oz” (1939)

“Toto, I’ve got a feeling we’re not in Kansas anymore.” What can you say about this movie that hasn’t been said? A musical fantasy filmed in early Technicolor and bursting with spring colors, the iconic transitional scene from black and white to color and the movie’s theme of growth is very much representative of the changing seasons. A cinematic masterpiece and adaptation of L. Frank Baum’s 1900 novel, the story follows young Dorothy and her little dog Toto who quest to find the Wizard of Oz and get home to Kansas, encountering friends and foes along the way. Full of heart, music and adventure, this movie still holds up almost 100 years later. Rated G but due to some scary content, treat this as a PG.

Stream these movies where available, or rent from your local movie store, library or rental kiosk.
