Fahrenheit 225 in Portland

The Fahrenheit 225 (website, facebook, instagram) food truck is now operating in Portland Wednesday through Friday, noon to 6pm at 1321 Washington Ave. They plan to be at that location through the remainder of the year.

Owners Al and Linda Clark serve a menu of Carolina and Memphis style barbecue. According to their press release,

Fahrenheit serves the usual favorites: pulled pork and pulled chicken sandwiches, ribs, Maine-made sausage, and chili. Sides include mac and cheese, cole slaw, corn bread, BBQ beans, and more. The menu rotates except for the pulled pork: that’s a staple. It’s the featured ingredient in their unique “Pigs Gone Solo,” a big red plastic cup with a layer of cornbread, a layer of beans, a layer of pulled pork, and a layer of cole slaw, topped with a juicy rib. It’s great “walking around” food and really popular at festivals.

Little Spruce Baking Co. Launched

Big Tree Hospitality, the restaurant group that includes Eventide, Hugo’s and  The Honey Paw, has launched their newest venture, the Little Spruce Baking Company (instagram).
