Longtime SE Portland Italian eatery Il Piatto will shutter its doors on Sunday, March 18, to make way for an entirely different restaurant concept from the husband-and-wife team of Eugen and Lenore Bingham. The new place, combining American and German cuisines, will be called the Slide Inn. "Although this is an extremely difficult decision, it is one that is well thought out and necessary," the couple stated in an email to longtime Il Piatto patrons. "Cooking Italian food for the Portland community has been one of our greatest joys and yes, it is an emotional decision to close our doors... [but] with each ending, there is a new beginning."
