Lenora (@lenoramaine) a new 115-seat Mexican-inspi

Lenora (@lenoramaine) a new 115-seat Mexican-inspired taco bar is scheduled to open Monday morning. The restaurant is located in 2 Portland Square in the location that was formerly the home of Walter’s. The space has been completely renovated and features a central bar, tile floors and high ceilings which makes for a large open light-filled dining room.
Lenora will be initially open for breakfast and plan to expand hours and menu to include lunch and dinner within a few weeks.
The dine-in or take-out counter service breakfast menu (4th and 5th photos) includes breakfast tacos and sandwiches, pastries, a fruit parfait, fresh juices, cocktails and a full espresso bar. Once Lenora opens for lunch and dinner they’ll be serving a menu of table service Mexican-inspired street food. You can see Lenora’s draft lunch/dinner menu and drinks menu on their website.
Owners Rian and Jen Wyllie, Brian Beattie, Aaron Sanders and Max Toste formerly worked together operating Lone Star Taco Bar and Deep Ellum in Boston. The Wyllie’s have been part of the Portland restaurant community since they moved to Maine in 2017.
Lenora will be 7 – 11 am, seven days a week starting Monday. #portlandmaine #mainefood #lenora #tacobar #portlandoldport

A new restaurant call Wander at LongWoods (@wander

A new restaurant call Wander at LongWoods (@wanderatlongwoods) is under construction in the town of Cumberland. The overall venture—which will include an on-site farm—is a collaboration between chefs Mike Allen and Rich Maggi, farmers Molly and Jordan McDuffie, and general manager Joe Atwood. The team hope to launch Wander by early June.
The farm will be an integral part of Wander at LongWoods providing food for the restaurant, an experiential component to the property and a farm store selling Longwoods products as well as those from other farms and food producers. The McDuffies plan to operate a small scale farm employing regenerative farming techniques raising pigs, chickens and cows in addition to the market garden.
Chefs Allen and Maggi will draw as many of the menu ingredients from the LongWoods farm as well as from other nearby farms to serve a seasonal elevated farm-to-table menu. While emphasizing local sourcing they expect to still utilize ingredients (e.g. citrus) that aren’t grown in Maine. The beverage program will feature wine, 6-8 taps of local beer, and cocktails produced in collaboration with Portland area distilleries. In addition to a dining room that will seat 70+, Wander will also have a terrace with outdoor seating, and a communal area extending out into the farm field with picnic tables, fire pits, Adirondack chairs.
Wander at LongWoods will be located at the LongWoods Preserve (@longwoodspreserve) which is being developed as a multi-use (restaurant, recreation, farm, etc) resource for the area. The 55 acre preserve is in land conservation through a collaboration between the Chebeague & Cumberland Land Trust and the Maine Farmland Trust. The project was initiated and envisioned by land owner by Alex Timpson who spearheaded the conservation efforts on the property.
The building (shown) that will house Wander was designed by Paul Designs Project. LongWoods Preserve is located at 76 Longwoods Road in Cumberland Center. #cumberlandmaine #wander #wanderatlongwoods #longwoodspreserve #mainefood #tabletofarm #farmtotable

Owners Matt and Corrinna Stum plan to move their W

Owners Matt and Corrinna Stum plan to move their West End restaurant @rubyswestend to 642 Congress Street to the storefront that was formerly occupied by Ada’s. The last service at the Pine Street Ruby’s West End will be on January 29th.
The Stums have put together a team that includes chef Garret LeClair, baker Nee-Nah Hall, barista Aly Shannon and bartender Ethan Cory. Ruby’s will be serving brunch, lunch and dinner.
The menu for the 40-seat restaurant is still under development with the working theme of “Maine roots, French inspired”. Some classic French dishes like cassoulet, duck confit, coq au vin, and loup du mer are expected to be part of the dinner menu as well as vegan and vegetarian options. Lunch and brunch menus will expand with options for soup, salads and sandwiches.
The team hope to open the new Ruby’s in February. They plan to initially be open Wednesday through Sunday, 9 am – 9 pm.
The Stum’s opened Ruby’s West End in April 2021 at 64 Pine Street, and recently launched @backriverbistro in Wiscasset. #portlandmaine #rubysoncongress #mainerootsfrenchinspired

The new @lbkitchenportlandme at 255 Congress Stree

The new @lbkitchenportlandme at 255 Congress Street is now open. Owners Bryna Gootkind and chef Lee Farrington purchased the building on the corner of Congress and Smith Streets back in February and have completely renovated the corner unit to move and expand LB Kitchen into. The new LB will feature a 28-seat dining room, a retail market and a dedicated space for takeout pick-up.
LB Kitchen will be open everyday 8 am – 3 pm with their regular menu (shown here is the breakfast salad and purple rain smoothie). Then from 3 to 6 pm they’ll be serving beer, wine, cider snacks and small plates during what they’ve dubbed Golden Hour.
The original LB Kitchen storefront is being converted to serve as a brick and mortar location for Quanto Basta (@quanto_basta_maine). #portlandmaine #lbkitchen #breakfastsalad
