Sorry, I would not eat at Buen Apetito. The cooks do not care how the food is cooked, and the service is not good. I would only give the place two stars.

So I live in Biddeford and would agree pizza by Alex is a staple but an acquired taste not the easiest recommendation… I would go Colletti’s (spelling?) over it for a more conventional yet amazing pizza!

I visited Schoodic Point several times in the 1980s. It did not matter whether it was high or low tide, the waves are always crashing on the rocks. A place where there is constant variety of waves capes and unchanging rock formations with enough interest so you are always fascinated and never bored. I cannot think of another stretch of coast with such variety and unity in such a relatively small area.

Three years ago, my wife and I rented the Airbnb in Stonington a little boathouse just up from Green head lobster we thought we were going to Bar Harbor and she found this place so we decided to go and we did leave completely changed. We took two trips on the mailboat over to Isle Au Haut… eventually learned how to pronounce it… Several days a few hours each time spend at sand beach… I hopped the rocks out along the shoreline did some fishing kept looking in the water, wondering if some great white beast would surface, or at least a seal. Walked merchant row every evening. Ate did every restaurant restaurant…. Some several times. 44 North Coffee…. Can’t wait to get back there. Then to place where the guy has the little town re-created and the quirky spots through the woods and the jam and jellies they make we actually ordered those pretty regularly now. Deer Isle… cannot wait to get back to you.

I am from Oregon and we say "honkin" too! I thought it was just a normal thing everybody says haha. I've also heard a version of the "ayuh" where I'm from. Oregon has some interesting colloquialisms that oddly seem to have counterparts in other corners of the country. I would love to understand why one day, it's all so fascinating to me. Anyway, thank you for your great video.

I speak french by the way, grew up in Quebec. I couldn't speak english until my late twenties. I like to eat poutine very much.

Stephen grew up in Durham across the river from Lisbon. He has moved around the state a bit. He lived in Bridgton on the Kansas Rd when I was in High School and would visit there (Lake Region) often. Later, he moved to Bangor where I just moved from after spending ten years there. For the record, he is one odd duck. His wife had an apple orchid not far from Bridgton, but has recently sold it (my nephews wife worked there).
