You know what I mean: the places we locals almost never go because they're overpriced with mediocre food (or whatever their attraction is) and are probably covered with lobster traps to make up for it. There are two big ones I can think of:
- "The
WTaste of Maine Rest'rant, Route 1 Woolwich, just north of Bath, ayuh." It's probably the archetype. I'll be happy to give the new owners a chance if it gets sold. - DiMillo's, Portland. The food is probably better than mediocre, and it's one of the few if not only places in Portland that serve Lazy Man's Lobster, but IMHO you're still way overpaying for the atmosphere. If I meet a tourist who seems decent I steer them towards the Lobster Shack, which brings its own bitter thrill of imagining them driving down the tiny winding road to get there.
What else we got?
