From Anthony Boudain's best episode of No Reservations...
Primo Restaurant
Tony visits Primo co-owner Melissa Kelly for some of her homemade specialties including a charcuterie course from her own pigs, pasta, veal and pork chops. For the finishing touches, Tony tries Maine oysters from the Damariscotta tidal river.
2 S Main St., Rockland, ME 04841
J's Oyster
J's is a dark pub-like atmosphere. There are plenty of oysters for the taking, but the real stars are the Maine clams, aka steamers. Tony and Zach Zamboni enjoy some pints and a large bucket of steamers and butter.
5 Portland Pier, Portland, ME 04101
Street & Co.
Owner Dana Street and Portland fishmonger George Parr join Tony for a fresh seafood meal at Street & Co, just steps from the water's edge.
33 Wharf St., Portland, ME 04101
And the one place in Main that I just have to go to some day -- a hole-in-the-wall lover's Mecca...
Conte's 1894 Restaurant
Conte's is the place to go for large portions of fresh seafood. Tony samples everything owner John Conte can dish up including Maine shrimp, lobster, haddock and mussels.
Commercial St., Rockland, ME 04841
So, your only advice so far is from a dog in Dallas. :laugh:
