Portland, Maine - looking for pre-marathon meal
I have been going to Ribollita for many years. I find the food superior and the service impeccable. We have only had one service glitch and that was when we had a party of 14. I think the waitress was having a bad day. Several of the waitresses have been there for over 10 years, and they know the menu well. I would like to recommend the mussels appetizer: it is the best I have ever had, including Fore Street. Save some of the bread to dip into the pistachio sauce. For dessert, the chocolate tart is so rich there are no words to describe it. They often have Osso Bucco on a bed of white polenta, which was our favorite winter dish. Kevin does try to keep the prices reasonable, and he succeeds! I love this place!
best blueberry pie in Maine??
I have always liked Acres of Wildlife Campground's pies. They are on Route 113 on the right just past the Village of Steep Falls in Standish going west. Long approach road in, but the Blueberry pies are great!
