This Riverside Maine Fish House Serves Seafood Portions So Huge You’ll Want To Bring An Appetite

A seafood restaurant named after a local water skiing legend? That detail alone had me hooked. This one also happens to sit right beside the Penobscot River, with outdoor seating facing the water.

Forget Boring Grocery Runs Because These Maine Markets Make Christmas Food Shopping Feel Special

One Maine grocery stop on this list built its name on sauerkraut. Yes, the humble fermented cabbage somehow became the headliner, and I love that more than I can explain.
