Wasses Hot Dogs, Rockland, Maine.

What started as way for Keith Wasse to pay for college in 1972, has turned into a classic Maine tradition.

His midcoast hot dog stands offer a simple menu and simple prices.

He gave up on college, but has earned a Phd in Classic Hot Dog. (Which just might be much more valuable than many other high priced degrees!)

So get in line for one of life’s best simple pleasures, hot off the griddle in Rockland, Maine (or in Belfast in Reny’s parking lot.)

Rolling sushi.

Thursday, September 24th, 2009

Abundant, and exquisitely fresh fish and produce makes Maine the ideal place to enjoy sushi. At the Maine Fare, foodie event in Camden a couple of weeks ago, the very popular Suzuki’s Sushi Bar in Rockland demonstrated how to roll sushi. Looks really easy!

It was a drippy, July day. Fried clams sounded just right. And they were much more than that, at The Boathouse in Rockland. The dessert was the panoramic view.

Thanks to @danamoos for the recommendation.
