Appetite Portland has published a review of Po’Boys & Pickles.
A toffee bread pudding was – in a word – killer. Too stuffed to eat in the restaurant, we carted it home and fought over the too-small portion. I’ll definitely go back to try the fried shrimp po’ boy, the gumbo and my very own order of pudding.
A call to my friend with my assessment yielded a stunned pause, and, finally, “A good po’ boy in Maine. Well, that’s almost enough to make my grandpa roll over in his grave.”

Food writer Margo Mallar reports on her recent visits to Asmara and The Merry Table in today’s Portland Daily Sun.
On Friday we returned to an old favorite, Asmara, the Eritrean restaurant on Oak Street between Congress and Free street. The dishes are served on injera, a pancake made from teff, a grain that is native to the Ethiopian highlands…Injera doubles as a utensil; you tear off small pieces to use like little gloves to grasp the chunky bits of the stew and to scoop up the broth-soaked injera beneath.

Portland Eats has published a “First Bites” review of Kamasouptra.
Based on a few soup samples and my bowl of chili, the restaurant is a great option for a quick, hearty, and satisfying lunch.
There’s a few new under construction details to report:

Portland Eats has published a review of Otto Pizza and their new Enzo wine bar/dining area.
Before Enzo opened, your dining choices at Otto were limited to the few seats at the restaurant, standing outside on Congress, or take-out to enjoy at home. All are workable options, particularly when talking about pies of this quality. However, pizza is at its best when freshly prepared and straight from the oven (with a cold beer). Thankfully, with the recent expansion, Otto has created a comfortable and inviting space in which to enjoy the city’s best pizza.
