Review of The Porthole

The Porthole has received 4 stars from this week’s Eat & Run review in the Press Herald.

Bottom line: With its atmospheric location on the waterfront, just across from the Harbor Fish market, this would be a good spot to bring visitors, especially during good weather when you can eat out on the restaurant’s deck. But it’s also a good destination for locals to drop in for a quick bite, especially during the week when you’re looking for a low-key place where you don’t have to fight crowds.

Maple's Organics in SoPo & Sustainable Food Conference

Today’s Press Herald includes an article on Maple’s Organics new production facility and retail space in South Portland,

In the new space, retail customers will be able to see how the ice cream base is cooked in big pots, how flavorings like raw sugar caramel are made, and how ingredients like peanut butter cups and cookies are stirred into the frozen mixture. The shop will also offer baked goods, coffee and other beverages.

The 1,800-square-foot building provides a better space for the growing business.
