I have started writing over on Substack. I'd love it if you subscribed! I was seeking a way to re-circulate my blog and email my community when I publish a new post. Perhaps a newsletter of sorts? What I have found on Substack is a large community of very good writers that inspired me to write a bit more, too. Yes, I'll continue to post here, but my hope is that Substack gives me some more visibility. I recently wrote about this very night in Portland, Maine which will publish straight to the inbox of my subscribers.
They have an excellent wine program and (after cocktails at CBG, Paper Tiger and Blythe & Burrows) we went straight for wine by the glass. Our first was from the skin contact or orange wine section: a Bosman ($16) Fides Grenache Blanc from Western Cape, South Africa. Second, from the whites, a glass of Dorcha ($13) Sauvignon Blanc from Lower Styria, Slovenia, to close out the evening.
To eat, some of the most inventive, thought provoking plates:
casco bay oysters ($10) smoked trout roe, bergamot mignonette
scallop crudo ($24) matsutake xo, chile de arbol, toasted jasmine rice milk
birra tacos ($22) preserved tomatillo, queso oxaco
hamachi collar ($36) shio koji x tare, morita emulsion
547 Congress St.
