So Long, Mim’s
I was saddened to read on Chow Maine that Mim’s Brasserie, our favorite spot in Portland for Sunday brunch, closed last weekend. Dinner there has been hit or miss, but we’ve never failed to find a wonderful brunch in its cozy dining room or, when the weather is amenable, its deck with a view of the waterfront. Its frites were usually the highlight, but the various sandwiches and omelettes were always worth the trip as well. Adieu, Mim’s. Our quest for an after-church haunt will begin again in the spring I suppose…
I’m so depressed. I only had their French Toast once, and it’s the best I’ve ever had. But their salads were amazing…even their plain black coffee was grand. Alas, alas. I’m going to go cry into my pillow.
