Food Coma: The Hell Out of Dodge – Aragosta

Become a patreon member of food coma: my seventies kitchen

The first installment in our Food Coma: The Hell Out of Dodge series is, as it should be, Aragosta in Deer Isle, Maine. This is one of the most exciting restaurants on the East Coast, and we wanted to give a feel for what it’s like there in the off-season. We have caviar tastings, meals cooked on the beach, and libations for all. The crew at Aragosta work their asses off in-season. Though it is not ALL play in the cold months, it was great to enjoy the more relaxed atmosphere without a busy dinner service looming.

In my opinion, chef and owner Devin Finigan has created something magnificent in Aragosta – an experience that must be seen to be believed. We hope you enjoy this glimpse into the life of a busy New England restaurant in the off-season.

BIG THANKS to our sponsors, Taco Escobarr and Lazzari Restaurants in Portland, ME

S2 E8: Moss, Rocks, and Catalina Breezes in the morning with chef Devin Finigan

Chef Devin Finigan truly does it all. Her restaurant, Aragosta at Goose Cove in Deer Isle, Maine, is simply one of the most enjoyable experiences in the entire state. Her enthusiasm for what she does is absolutely contagious and left me wanting to schedule another visit in the Fall.

In this episode, we discuss the past, present, and future of Aragosta, while deviating to address everything from dining al fresco to cod sperm. Also that time someone ruined my birthday cake..

Also we make Mint Juleps with Belfry Bourbon from Stroudwater Distillery, the recipe is available here on the site!
