Review of Po'Boys & Pickles

From Away has published a review of Po’Boys & Pickles.

So the big question: Is Po’ Boys and Pickles serving authentic New Orleans-style fried seafood Po’ boys? Miunno. Po’ Boys and Pickles is, however serving unbelievably delicious, crunchy oyster and shrimp sandwiches, with a lot of thought and care given to both the menu, the food, and your experience. We were asked no less than three times by the staff if we enjoyed everything, not because they were pushy, but because the staff at Po’ Boys and Pickles seems to genuinely care about what they’re doing and the kind of food they’re producing.

Review of Sonny's

Vin et Grub has published a review of Sonny’s.

I took Annie to dinner where we both indulged in the Chili Poblano Cheesburgers, with house fries, and pickled veggies for our entree.  I love the inclusion of pickled anything, but especially pickled radishes which were just what I needed.  They were sour and tart, but still retained a bit of the spiciness from the original radish.

First Review of Pai Men Miyake

Appetite Portland has published a 7-point review of Pai Men Miyake.

2. Ramen like it should be. All three ramen bowls (pork, miso, soy) are tasty with nicely cooked noodles, but my favorite is the heady Soy. The salt in the soy kicks the fat and marrow in the broth into high gear and keeps the rich oil front and center as you slurp. Shake in a dash of white pepper and the complexity intensifies – releasing a burst of scallion and spices. Lean over the steaming bowl and just inhale for awhile. I swear this soup could cure anything that ails ya – cold, hangover, bad temper. . .

Review of Blue Burrito & Article on Maine Beer Co.

Blue Burrito Cafe in Westbrook received 4 stars from the Eat & Run review in today’s Press Herald.

I was pleasantly surprised to find that the meat in my quesadilla was tender and still lightly pink in the center. It came with caramelized poblano peppers, onions and sauteed mushrooms, with sour cream on the side. The smaller version of this dish costs $7, and is plenty for one person’s lunch. A larger version is also available for $8.50, if you’re really hungry or want leftovers.

Today’s paper also includes a What Ales You column on Maine Beer Company, makers of Spring Peeper Ale.

“Even as we speak, we are expanding to a 15-barrel brewhouse, which will speed things up dramatically,” David said.

Not only will their beers be more available when the new system comes online, probably in mid-October, the company will be able to introduce new styles and, perhaps, come closer to making some money.

Review of Micucci's

1840 Farm has published a review of the pizza at Micucci Grocery Company.

Five minutes can seem like a lifetime when you’re left to stand there staring at an empty stainless steel shelf smelling pizza this good.  Once the slabs hit the window, you’ll notice that they come on simple, white paper plates.  You can either box each slab up to take home or walk it back through the maze of grocery items to the cashier.  Once you’ve paid for your slab, you can return to the back room and sit at one of the two patio tables and finally dig in with your plastic knife and fork.  Welcome to pizza nirvana.  Now you know the secret handshake.
