Happy Saturday friends! I hope you all had a great week! Earlier this month, I had the opportunity to explore Portland, Maine. This was my first time traveling to Portland, and I loved it!! Portland was a very charming, quintessential New England city by the water. When it comes to restaurants in Portland, there are so many good options. It is definitely a foodie city! If you are a foodie like myself, then add Portland to your travel list!
