Portland in a SNAP has posted a profile of Paciarino.

“…the restaurant is serving lunch Monday through Saturday. The focus of the menu is the fresh pasta and sauce, made from scratch each day.”

The Maine Switch has published a profile of Borealis Breads Bakery & Bistro on Ocean Ave. The Switch reports that Borealis is starting a monthly dinner speakers series.

“The first will feature the builders who constructed the restaurant’s wood-fired oven, who will talk about how to create one in a backyard and how to cook with wood. The second will likely feature Aroostook County wheat farmer Matt Williams.”

Today’s Press Herald published a profile of Maine Mead Works.

“Wait, don’t go anywhere. Yes, the topic is mead today. But no, you are not trapped in a time warp or at a Renaissance Fair. There will be no words with an ‘e’ randomly stuck on the end, no cheesy costumes, no faux lords and ladies who talk as if they just stepped out of the Middle Ages.

That’s not what Eli Cayer and Ben Alexander had in mind when they opened their new meadery in Portland.”
