I FEATURE Owner, Derby interview f the hat ip o to t ’s JUDITH STOKES At the intersection of North Interstate Avenue and Argyle Street, a towering statue of Paul Bunyan, created in 1959 for Oregon’s big centen- nial celebration, welcomes locals and visitors alike to North Portland’s bustling Kenton District. Earlier this year another legend, native Oregonian Judith Stokes, 41, opened the doors to her brunch-centric restaurant, Derby, just a block away from Big Paul, giving everyone just one more reason to check out this quirky neighborhood to the north. Derby is located on North Denver Avenue in the space that was once home to Karen Harding’s Cup & Saucer Cafe. With Derby, Stokes, who for the last six years was living and working on the north coast in Astoria, Oregon, saw a chance to return to her roots—she grew up just across the Columbia River in Hazel Dell, Washington—and also contribute to a quickly evolving community. A former food cart owner in both Portland and Astoria (she is perhaps best known for the much-missed North Mississippi Avenue-based Tita’s Pista), Stokes’ Derby primarily focuses on breakfast options with specials that highlight her Filipino heritage, including the spring rolls known as lumpia (she loves them so much she has one tattooed on her arm). Portland Interview Magazine had a chance to speak to Stokes between her shifts at Derby. Here’s what she had to say: WORDS Byron Beck PHOTOGRAPHY Tim Sugden 10 | PORTLANDINTERVIEW.COM 11 I interview Organic OregOn hemp cbd, lOcally prOduced, family Owned What was it like growing up in the Northwest? good to open a spa/holistic skincare and cosmetic shop.
