There are many familar names in this month's Top Ten (we must say, you do have your favorites!), but if you needed a reason to try a new restaurant this past week, we celebrated Southen Maine Restaurant Week. Great deals for lunch and dinner at excellent choices near our Ogunquit hotel. Just minutes from the Meadowmere - Lydia Shire's Blue Sky (we featured a great recipe from here in one of our enewsletters), Clay Hill Farm (our Green Wedding Giveaway partner - the big day is June 21!), Fox's Lobster House (can't beat a Maine Lobster roll at the Nubble Lighthouse!) and more.

For the choices, there were family restaurants in the Ogunquit area (Roberts is a great pick at the Kittery Outlets) and romantic restaurants choices for couples and special occasions (On the Marsh is a beautiful setting and has a great wine list). No one left hungry and everyone got a great deal!
