Portland, Maine

Portland, Maine is probably one of my places to be. It will always have a special place in my heart because of the great memories I've had there as well as the new things my wife and I discover as we return.

So, for our big 10 year wedding anniversary, I thought why not go back to a place that has been such a special landmark in our married time together? And, what a great decision that was.

The food was still amazing, the sights still spectacular but Portland has grown in popularity so there were more people there just discovering what we've known for a while now.


Our first food stop at Duckfat -- French fries fried in duckfat with truffle ketchup and curry mayo
lobster on a bed of linguine in garlic and butter sauce at Street & Co - could I be any happier?

The quintessential Maine meal - lobster roll. This one was from The Lobster Shack in Cape Elizabeth. I'm still on the search for the best one in Maine. The best one was in Bar Harbor, Maine (can't remember the name of the restauarant, though!)

The breakfast of champions at Becky's Diner right on Hobson Wharf in Portland -- that's a pound and a half of lobster in that omelet, my friends.
