Maine Restaurant Guide Beyond Portland, From an Industry Pro | Eater Boston

"About 20 minutes north of Portland is the Purple House, a wood-fired bakery from Krista Desjarlais where everything that comes out of the tiny cottage feels otherworldly. You can’t miss the bagels — wood-fired Montreal-style that vary in flavors each day — and beyond the bagels there are pizzas, breads, and desserts that none of which should be missed. There’s a reason even Portlanders are weekly regulars here, and once you go you’ll be dreaming about everything you’ve eaten until you make it back." - Briana Volk
