Fork n' Film stages Lilo and Stitch dinner

Fork n’ Film staged a “Lilo and Stitch” dining event in Portland on May 22, according to listings on Mato and the company’s Portland event page. The event paired a screening of the Disney film with a synchronized meal, with guests served courses timed to moments in the movie. Mato described the night as a “full-on tasting session,” while Fork n’ Film’s own Portland page said the experience came with a multi-course meal. ### Where did the Portland event take place? Mato listed the May 22 event under Fork n’ Film in Portland, and the venue page says the company is hosting screenings in the city this month. The listing identified the event as “Fork n’ Film: Lilo and Stitch, Portland” and described it as part of the company’s local run of synchronized dining experiences. Map listings tied to Fork n’ Film Portland show an address at 1125 SE Madison St. in Portland’s Buckman area, though the event page itself centered on the Mato listing rather than a full venue profile. (ma.to) ### How was the meal tied to the movie? The Mato event page said attendees would “eat exactly what’s on screen,” describing a menu that follows the film’s timeline. The listing called the format a synchronized dining experience and said the screening was designed to turn the movie into an immersive dinner. (ma.to) Fork n’ Film’s Portland page used similar language, saying “Lilo & Stitch” would be presented with a multi-course meal in Portland. (mapquest.com) A broader company events page says Fork n’ Film builds screenings around “chef-crafted dishes” and “carefully selected drinks” to make films “come to life through taste.” ### Is this a one-off event or part of a larger Portland run? Fork n’ Film’s Portland venue page says the company is hosting two “Lilo and Stitch” synchronized dining experiences this month. (ma.to) The same page says the Portland lineup also includes other film-themed dinners. Other Mato listings show the company has recently scheduled Portland events around “Coco,” “The Princess and the Frog” and other titles using the same screen-synced dining format. (forknfilm.com) Those listings describe the events as immersive cinematic dining in which dishes mirror scenes or moments from the film. ### How does Fork n’ Film describe its format more broadly? Fork n’ Film says on its events page that it pairs films with dining experiences designed to be “multi-sensory.” The company says its screenings are built around food and drink matched to specific movies rather than a standard dinner service before or after a film. (ma.to) A Hōkū Events page for a separate Portland-area “Lilo & Stitch” event described the concept as a “4-d experience” in which viewers eat a meal corresponding to what they are seeing on screen. (ma.to) That description matches the language used in the Portland Mato listing for the May 22 event. ### What comes next in Portland?
