In Portland I recommend Street & Company for the food especially seafood. For atmosphere you can't beat the Lobster Shack on Cape Elizabeth at Two Lights. The Bakers Table is also very good.

Good blueberry pie. My in-laws like to stop at the Muddy Rudder (?) but I have never been there so I can't give a first-hand recommendation.

I'm amazed by how many ethnic places are mentioned! I've always gotten the sense from my friends who have lived there that the city has no ethnic diversity or anything other than steak houses and mediocre chinese food. (Then again, the friends in question live in Roseville and don't venture into the city much -- nor do they have an adventurous appetite!) Where abouts in Maine are you heading? If you're in the Augusta area, I recommend that you eat at Slate's in Hallowell. It's a casual, fun place with good-sized portions of creative food. It's both a neighborhood restaurant and bar as well as a place that people travel to from other towns. The brunch, served on Saturday and Sunday, is the way brunch should be but never is -- an incredible selection of breakfast and lunch things, huge breakfast specials (like a massive omelet with homemade bread and hash browns and coffee) at low prices (that combo would be about $6). In fact, if you're in the area on July 8 or 15 (I can't remember which), the "Old Hallowell Parade" will be happening. I've only heard about it, but I'm going this year. It sounds like a fairly bizarre grouping of people -- from the old, wealthy families to the young, hip artists -- celebrating the town, which is filled with antique and curio stores. Have a good trip! -- allison groves.
