Random photos taken with an iPhone during a delicious, casual dinner at the Lost Kitchen in Belfast, Maine.

The owners, Todd and Erin French, have rescued one of the most beautiful buildings on the coast of Maine, on a triangle in downtown Belfast for their new restaurant.

Todd builds beautiful boats at French and Webb. And Erin builds beautiful meals at her new restaurant.

Aren’t we lucky to be in Maine?

Cooler than a rock star.

It was a busy day exploring Port Clyde and Owls Head with visitors from Seattle, so we stopped into Shepherd’s Pie for drinks, which turned into an early dinner.

Shepherd’s Pie is Brian Hill’s new baby. You may know him from Francine’s in Camden.

From their website — “Brian grew up on a farm in Warren, Maine. Briefly dabbled in music before starting his kitchen career working at such restaurants as Olives, Figs, Bayona in New Orleans, Aquitane, and the Linwood Grill.”

We ordered appetizers, which expanded into a delicious dinner that we enjoyed Tapas style.

The onion rings have become a must have for every visit.

Brian started in the music business so he might like to know that these kids think chefs are cooler than rock stars.

We’re so lucky that Brian moved back to Maine – where he believes the food “just tastes better.”

Here’s a nice write-up in Maine Magazine.

Secret’s out.

This previous post was a bit of a tease.

But you really should know about this spot.

And because you read this blog, here’s your reward.

Waterman’s Beach Lobster Shack is what we were trying to keep to ourselves. And their secret to a great lobster roll, is not only luscious lobster, but the roll itself.

But here’s the deal, just don’t eat all the pies. OK?

See you in line. Don’t forget they’re BYOB.
