5. Count me in

I just went on my semiannual trip to Trader Joe's in Portland Maine and bought a cooler full of their pork dumplings.

I don't eat a lot of meat, but I could've eaten it all...

Sauce = teriyaki, oyster, sriracha

Yum

7. COOL!

Heading to Portland (late this week, after Portsmouth and Providence,) so suggestions for places to eat and things to do appreciated. (Saving Trader Joe's for my next return to DC suburb.)

[jpak]

12. Every place in Portland is delicious - enjoy

Get an overpriced lobster at the waterfront.

And steamed clams with a gallon of melted butter

Best evah

That said, all our osprey nests were empty yesterday

[elleng]

13. Thanks.

Osprey nests around here empty too (kind of, tho one on Chesapeake still active,) and just saw pic of a late osprey @ Hog Island. and heard of a few in Conn.

14. If you go by Southeastern Mass.

Fall River, MA (my hometown) has an excellent Chinese restaurant called Mee Sum on South Main Street, try a Chow Mein sandwich. When I went back there a few years ago for a visit, they also had huge egg rolls.

You might also want to try a chourico sandwich, (Portuguese sausage, think Italian sausage spiced with paprika). Marcucci's is awesome (not fancy, but good eats)

You can also visit the Battleship Massachusetts and the Marine Museum

There's also a restaurant called the Cove near the battleship, gets good reviews-have fun!

22. There is a local grocery store that has this fantastic tater tot dish ONLY on Monday......

and I swear to gawd, if you don’t get to the store at like 2:30pm - 4:00pm you are just out of luck. It is the best damn tater tot hot dish EVER. Not ashamed to say have waited in line to get some. Delicious.

[Fla Dem]

11. Pasta with a nice tomato sauce...hmmmmmmmmmm, just keep it coming.

[a kennedy]

16. Dang it, this almost sounded like that advertisement with Mark Hammel and what's his name, sir _____

Love those ads.

[Fla Dem]

19. Yes, Sir Patrick Stewart, better known as Captain Jean-Luc Picard.

[a kennedy]

21. Ya, and thanks.......

24. Why do I want finger food?

[Solly Mack]

25. Beans and cornbread.

I'd blow the competition away.

[Ka-Dinh Oy]

26. Sushi would be lovely.

However, if I needed to win on how much I could eat Sushimi would be better as rice fills you up to fast. Or possibly jello.
