Elda, World Class Yum

Elda is a warm welcoming space, filled with talented crafts people, creating delicious and beautiful food. There are no words to describe how many flavors of the: ocean, forest and farm are infused into every sip and bite of their one choice tasting menu. I must stress, how much I appreciated their modern less formal mode of service. A confirmed fan of alcoholic fermentation, I loved how inventive, satisfying and over-the-top tasty the non-alcoholic pairings are. At least one member of your party should order. There really isn’t anything more to say, except that if you love fine dining, you should immediately take the next car,train,or plane to Biddeford,Maine.

Palace Diner- The New King of Hash!

So glad I stopped by the Palace Diner. Maine’s oldest diner is now in the running with Gardner’s A1 to take the title of “Maine’s best chef driven diner”.
I just had the most joyful corned beef hash of my Life! So rich/crusty/yet still surprisingly moist. Seemingly impossible but this hash has it all. Even the chunks of potato in it were perfectly crisped and seasoned. I may never have hash again for fear that I will forevermore be disappointed. Even better yet, my meal came with a yumalicious side of marble rye toast and perfectly cooked farm fresh eggs.
Yippee!
