Exploring the world of food, one meal at a time.
It’s October and in case you haven’t noticed, fall is in the air! And one thing that comes with fall are fall cocktails! By now, you have to know that some of my favorite cocktails are at Sagamore Hill Lounge so when I heard they had a new fall menu, I had to go check…
Okay, this hasn’t been your average summer by any means. Personally, I’ve never had to make so many reservations in the last month or two, but it’s been worth it to support some of my favorite restaurants and establishments. Now, I’m all about a good cocktail, but what I’m really loving this summer are frozen…
Some people think that lobster is only for the summer and warm weather. I disagree. Look, if you live in Maine and you can enjoy lobster year-round, you should. One of the best ways to do this? The Luke’s Lobster Portland Pier winter menu, of course! It’s got plenty of comfort food essentials, lobster rolls,…
One of the things that I love most about Portland is the places that make it what it is. Sure, there’s no doubt that the hot restaurants that everyone wants to get into are fun, but you can’t go there every time you need a quick breakfast or lunch bite. And that’s where a place…
With the holiday season fully in swing, I thought it might be fun to see if I could identify the ABCs of Portland’s food scene. You probably have family and friends who are visiting, and you need some new places to take them, right? Sometimes just having a fresh way of looking at your options…
It doesn’t take a genius to know that I love eating in Portland. And it’s something that my mother knows too, even if she lives a thousand miles away. She recently made a trip to Portland to celebrate her 60th birthday, and it reminded me just how much I love this town. It’s always different…
There are many burgers to try in Portland, and I’m definitely still a fan of the simple but elegant burger at Mash Tun. New to the Portland burger scene is the Spore Uproar Burger at Liquid Riot. If you’re not familiar, this burger is part of the James Beard Foundation’s Blended Burger Project. Chefs have…
I can almost remember it like it was yesterday. When I first heard about Maine Restaurant Week, I couldn’t believe it. Here was a whole week, dedicated to the restaurant scene in Maine. I first started this blog when I was a senior in college at USM, when I was looking for any and every…
For those that just opened this post, I’m sure you’re thinking it’s quite a claim to say the best burger in Portland is only $6. I mean, where can you even get a burger that’s $6 and quality in Portland? My friends, I have the answer, and it’s at my new favorite bar in Portland….
Winter in Maine sometimes makes me question why cold weather is acceptable. Like my hometown of Chicago, Maine is freezing during the winter. I’m never warm, multiple layers are a necessity, and it sometimes feels like I’d rather just hibernate til spring. But whether we like it or not, winter is just part of what…
