The place I always eat:

Food Stop. The perfect burger. It cost $2.00 when I was a kid and is maybe $3.25 now. Beats the shit out of $18 burger + $2 cheese + $2 lettuce and tomato + $2 bacon + $2 locavore humanely raised NYC bullshit.

Where to stay for the night:

My parent’s house. There’s no hotels in my town.

The one place I take everyone:

Harraseeket Lunch and Lobster Company in Freeport. Perfect lobster shack on the water. Just take a right before the BFI (Big Fucking Indian).

Best local product you should try:

Mulled cider from Sweetser’s Apple Barrel. I used to work here in high school picking apples. The regular cider is unpasteurized and when it ‘turns’ you’re in for a real treat. The apples are, of course, perfect.

The 2nd best kept secret:

Spring Brook Farm stand. Meats, eggs, milk, and whoopee pies that are all heaven sent.

*Everything in this piece is a lie. Maine is smelly and bad and there’s no good food and nothing there so why would you ever come. Stay away.
