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.
