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

Eat Like A local

Yahoo’s travel writer just posted an article on how to dine like a local in Portland,Maine. Highlights for Alex Van Buren were: Tandem Coffee,Duckfat,Eventide Oyster Co, and Central Provisions for best “fancy”meal, and Bite into Maine for best lobster roll.

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!
