No more procrastinating. Restaurant Week Maine has officially begun, with dozens of restaurants from Kennebunk to Bangor, and inland to Auburn/Lewiston and Bethel, participating. This is the perfect opportunity to sample a new restaurant or try a new dish. Three course dinners ($20.10 t0 $40.10) or lunches ($15.10) are available March 1-10. Restaurants can be searched alphabetically or by location or menu price, and menus are posted. This is a hugely popular event, so it’s wise to make reservations in advance, especially if you want to dine at one of the nationally recognized tables, such as Five Fifty-Five, Fore Street, or Hugo’s.
FYI: Both tonight’s Bartenders Bash and Friday’s Breakfast Cook-off are sold out. See? Ya snooze, ya lose.
