Tranchemontagne's Eats

For those debating their next dinner out, here's The Frog and Turtle's James Tranchemontagne's top restaurants, according to the chef's Chow.com profile:

1. Gotham Bar and Grill (New York City, NY)
2. Back Bay Grill (Portland)
3. 98 Provence (Ogunquit)
4. Main Street Cafe (Westbrook)

That's some heady company for our modest diner on Main Street.

P.S. FaT is celebrating its one-year anniversary on Saturday, September 13 with $1 drafts 9p-12a, $4 bourbon and whiskey (it's unclear if the special includes Duffy's Pure Malt Whiskey), and Jaye Drew and A Moving Train. There's also free cake at 10p (here's to the cake just being one gigantic donut), and prizes will be given away throughout the night.

P.P.S. For those uninspired by Tranchemontagne's picks, there's also this compilation of Paper City food reviews put together by some Internet hack.
