Ice Cream @ Beal's

Beal's Ice Cream
PH: 207-828-1335

12 Moulton Street
The Old Port, Portland 04101

beals1.jpg
Now whenever i'm in the area and need a quick ice cream fix, Beal's does the job just right. Friendly service and a HUGE SELECTION, you're bound to find something you like if you're into ice cream.
bealers1

beals2.jpg
I always go with vanilla. Some may call it plane jane, but its my favorite. moreover you can tell alot about a place by its vanilla. not to say i'm not daring sometimes and try other flavors...

beals3.jpgbeals4.jpgbeals5.jpgbeals6.jpg
Alas the crazy azn loves the vanilla, but he can never eat it fast enough...

beals7.jpg
Summation: Everyone i've taken here has loved the place. a nice quaint joint that you can sit and relax and enjoy a scoop or two. Its not one of my must go to places, but its definitely not easy walking by without a thought of running in and getting a cone quick.

Eating Candy @ Old Port Candy Co.

Old Port Candy Co.
PH: 207-772-0600

422 Fore Street
Portland, Maine 04101

oldport1.jpgoldport2.jpg
Now ya might have to take my review with a grain of salt as i'm not too heavily into sweets and all. But this is definitely a candy store that i take all the people that come with me to Portland Maine to. It has a huge variety and a great selection, and even contains some candies from my childhood...so why not?

Decor:
oldport3.jpgoldport4.jpgoldport5.jpg
Pretty cozy joint inside. I highly recommend stopping by and walking around, its not that big, and always smells pretty good inside. =)

The Goods:
oldport6.jpg
Jelly beans anyone? I like to leave the jelly bean in my mouth till the hard shell melts away and all you're left with is the soft inside. (there's also buckets and buckets like these of gummies of all kinds and sorts in the back.)

oldport7.jpg
They also do their own chocolates and some baked goods.

oldport8.jpg
some of these look really good.

oldport9.jpg
I'm sure some of you wouldn't be able to survive this store...since it smells like chocolatey heaven.

oldport10.jpg
The berries in chocolate...always a favorite.

oldport11.jpg
and lets not forget about the nutz and chocolate...

oldport12.jpg
truffles!!!

oldport13.jpg
mmmm more truffles....

oldport14.jpg
I'm serious, you could buy a different assorted box each time you came here...

oldport15.jpg
and of course the libation filled chocolates.

oldport16.jpg
For the 'health conscious' individuals. *rolls eyes.

oldport17.jpg
Some of the chocolates were just plain pretty goo.

oldport18.jpg
drunk off of chocolates anyone?

oldport20.jpg
clusters.
oldport19.jpg
i love chocolate covered pretzels.

Summation: I admit i'm biased, ever since i had chocolate in Vienna...as American chocolate always has a tendency of being overly sweet. But if you're into this shtuff, i'm sure this would be one of your heaven spots. CHEERS!!!

A second helping @ Dimillo's

DiMillo's Floating Restaurant
PH: 207-772-2216

25 Long Wharf
Portland, Maine 04101

dim1.jpg
I went back to Dimillo's in my latest lobterfest roll out, and this time around they had something that totally blew my mind...hence the reason for mentiong Dimillo's again....
dim2.jpg

dims1.jpg
Of course i got my normal fair of HUGE SHRIMP COCKTAIL which still stands as the biggest and best shrimp cocktail i've ever had...their mussels are really amazing and perfectly done as usual (trust me, you'll be dipping the bread in the white wine garlic sauce like there was no tomorrow) and of course their lovely hardshell lobsters.

dims2.jpg
and i always get their rice pilaf...always very well done.

dims3.jpg
Now what was the most surprising, and unfortunately its only on special...so they don't always have it.
dims4.jpg
I'm really thinking that they make their own whip cream.
dims5.jpg
oh my goodness soooo many blue berries.
dims6.jpg
This is by far the best blueberry cheese cake i've ever had....it was warm, and what really catches your attention is the fact that the blue berries are still bursting in your mouth when you take a bite with wholesome goodness....amazing...my hat goes off to the chef that made this...absolutely amazing.

dims7.jpg
We had actually gone back the next day to try and get the blue berry cheesecake again...unfortunately that's when we learned it was only on special...DOH! but i did find something that is permanently on the menu that is VERY GOOD...the blue berry cobbler...but you MUST get it ALAMODE (huge dollop of Vanilla ice cream)...the blue berries, the granola bits...nice and warm, contrasted with the ice cold ice cream....DEEEELISH!
dims8.jpg

Summation: At Dimillo's, the items that i can say are consistent and can recommend are the mussels, lobster, shrimp cocktail, clam chowder, blue berry cobbler and rice pilaf. Dimillo's is not my go to place for steak of anykind. I say stick with what i just told ya and you should be disco. CHEERS!!!

Red's Dairy Freeze | Since 1952

Red's Dairy Freeze
PH: 207-799-7506

167 Cottage Road
South Portland, Maine 04106

redcream1.jpg
I remember the first time that i went to the Portland Headlight house i passed by this joint and saw the HUGE CROWD and line. I finally was able to stop here a few years back. All the time i thought that there was some kind of event or something...but the crowd/line occurs on a regular basis...and after trying them out...i can totally see why...they always have like up to 8-10 different soft serve flavors....i loves me some soft serve...and so does fatnation. LOL.

redcream2.jpg
Mom got a small, i got a regular, i can only imagine what a large looks like.
redcream3.jpg
You can even
twirl some of their flavors together...

redcream4.jpgredcream5.jpg
The soft serve is some of the best i've ever had. and i've even ventured to try some of their other flavors...even some of their VERY INTERESTING milk shakes. 0_o

redcream6.jpg
Summation: Pumpkin was definitely very good, the grasshopper milk shake was very refreshing...like mint ice cream in it...and as usual, the fall back of Vanilla is always good to go. CHEERS!!!

The Standard Baking Co in Portland, ME

The Standard Baking Co.
PH: 207-773-2112

75 Commercial Street
Portland, Maine 04101

baking1.jpg
I had actually been to this place a few years ago, but Fatnation had just eaten and none of us were in the mood for baked goods...but i will tell you this, the one thing that stood out in my mind was the amazing smell when you walk into this joint...but nevertheless i never returned...as i'm not big on sweets let alone baked goods. It was only until my recent trip to Maine for 09 Lobster Festival that a fellow FatNation Member (ImprezaGirl) had gone with her group and brought home some treasures and let me try them back at their hotel room. my literal reaction was 'whoa....'

baking2.jpg
One of the things you'll notice immediately when you walk in is the display of everything.
baking3.jpg
the setup is really nice and to any bake good addicts, this is definitely heaven.
baking4.jpg

baking5.jpg
I bought a couple of items to try and also a repeat of an item that ImprezaGirl had hooked me up with.

baking6.jpg
Blue Berry Buckle...i was hesitant on this one, cause it looked overly dry...but holey sheeet...I love blue berries, but this took it too a whole other level...and since Maine is known for Blueberries before lobsters...this was definitely proof that people in Maine know how to do blue berries....*drooolz...so moist and soft and the blue berry flavor just hits you and you're left drooling from a mouthgasm...
baking7.jpg

baking8.jpg
The raspberry filled pastries that hooked me in. Crunchy outside, moist inside, then warm raspberry filling i don't even need to explain the flavor, the description alone should already have you daydreaming about it.
baking9.jpg

baking10.jpg
And the finale that i was really looking forward to...the Blue Berry Tart....they only do this when blue berries are in season...and i was so happy that i was able to try this...my only regret is that i only bought one....god this was insanely good...
baking11.jpg

Summation: as for the oatmeal scone like thing, mum dogged it before i had a chance to try it. lol. This is definitely another MUST GO place whenever i visit Maine...hands down...CHEERS!!
