we finally made it. to nosh kitchen bar.

Yup. We finally got to Nosh Kitchen Bar in Portland, Maine. We have been hearing rave reviews, plus saw it featured on Man vs. Food. I love Nosh, because it is just really, really good dude-food. Jediah got their famous french fries dusted with bacon (yes, you are reading this correctly)--they smelled amazing & according to Jediah, the fries tasted as good as the smelled. I went for the salt & pepper fries with chipotle mayo--crunchy & delish.

Then we attempted to eat sandwiches on top of the fries & local beers. Jediah continued with the bacon theme, by getting the bacon-cheese burger. While I tried the Nosh gobbler...because who doesn't love a little taste of Thanksgiving in the middle of summer? Love, love, love. 

If you are in the Portland area for a few days, you have to give this one a try--whether your a bacon-lover or a vegetarian...

happy eatings & cheers!

el rayo. portland, maine.

Last night, we went out to El Rayo with Jenika & Kyle in Portland. I have always wanted to go because when you drive by, the restaurant looks like it has such a fun vibe. The Mexican restaurant has outdoor seating, live bands & Dos Equis on tap. I am pretty sure you can even bring your dogs to the outdoor seating...I love it. Fun place, good food. 

happy eatings & cheers!

the snack shack.

The new Snack Shack just opened on UMF's Prescott Field.  They installed a wood oven for pizzas, so on our way home from bringing the dogs out for a run in the fields, we picked one up.  We were pleasantly & happily surprised with our margherita pizza.  The dough is from Marble Family Farms, hand stretched, scattered with fresh veggies, basil & mozzarella.  We made a big garden salad with a vinaigrette--& dined al fresco. Who knew the Snack Shack would be so handy...

The next step for Farmington will be food trucks! Well, at least I hope so. 

happy eatings & cheers!
