Last weekend we met Lindsay, Matt, Lorri, and Carmen at Meriwether's Restaurant to celebrate Lorri's birthday. Meriwether's is known for its "farm-to-table" philosophy, using fresh produce from its own 5 acre farm, Skyline Farm, in Portland. Skyline offers garden vegetables, flowers and herbs, and a growing flock of heritage laying ducks. Here's a few items we tried and loved from the menu: Chickpea fritters with harissa aioli, which Dan is attempting to recreate for dinner tonight! Goat cheese ravioli with assorted beets and wine sauce, grilled quail with mint peas and homemade bacon, and a seasonal soup that had white beans, cranberry puree, and bacon. Dan and I spent a good four hours there, from cocktails to dessert, and we highly recommend Meriwether's---but it's all the better with good friends.
