Miyake’s Secret

As I have written before Masa Miyake is Portland, Maine’s master of sea food and pork fat. It’s no surprise that it can be difficult to acquire a dinner reservation at his flagship Miyake Fore St. restaurant during the summer months.
The insider secret is that midweek you can usually walk in at lunch without a reservation. Whenever you go, you will be served a meal to be remembered.
Pork belly, tuna tartare, and chirashi pictured below.

Cultivating Community

A few photos from Cultivating Community’s children’s garden. They are a great organization that teaches children and new Americans to farm in Maine’s rocky soil. These photos were taken at Turkey Hill Farm in Cape Elizabeth, just prior to a dinner to raise awareness of the cause. The dinner was generously prepared by The East Ender.20140801-084844-31724505.jpg
