Being in Portland, Maine, we're surrounded by new and exciting restaurants, food trucks, and pop up events constantly! Being on Fore Street specifically, we're lucky to have a handful of those local food businesses stop by regularly to pick up some ingredients for their menu.

Here’s some of our favorites...

Hi I'm Brad, a Sales Associate at SKORDO. I'm a recent transplant to Portland, Maine. My girlfriend and I moved to the city from West Virginia a year ago. We have definitely fallen in love with the area. I think calling Portland a city really isn't fair. It feels and operates like an oversized beach town.

Moving to Portland after one visit is a common theme and there are no exceptions here, but my inspiration to move may be a little different. While I love all of Portland's food, I chose Maine to satisfy my sense of adventure and I've found more fun stuff to do in Portland than I thought possible.

Hi, I'm Shannon, Store Manager at SKORDO.  I am 24 and this is my third year living in Portland.

Thanks to my collection of restaurant, bakery and catering jobs and my following each and every food business online, I stay quite connected to the cities food industry. I am grateful to folks like Portland Food Map and Food Truck a Lico for giving the quick 411 on where to be and what Portland food to eat at the click of a button. Each time I have friends come to town, I throw together a different list of must see’s, but the following recommendations are a few of my favorite things to do  and places to eat in Portland, Maine

The greater Portland area is a foodie paradise. After spending time in SKORDO with our knowledge team of Portland food experts, be sure to explore the rest of the city!
