Petite Jacqueline: Bon Apetit!

I've been going back to Petite Jacqueline (at 190 State St. Portland, ME where Evangeline's used to be) since a few weeks after it opened.   The restaurant has this surreal vibe where Paris meets Epcot Center: you know you're in Portland, but the ambiance and food take you on a quick journey.  I was told about Petite Jacqueline by a waitress at Five Fifty-Five, owned by the same people.

15 Exchange Street Bistro (15 Exchange Grille)

15ExchangeStreet1Located at the address as the name suggests, 15 Exchange Street Bistro is now in the space Walter's Restaurant moved out of.   Three weeks ago we landed there for dinner; it was a bad decision that my stomach will keep me from repeating.  The place was dreadful on all accounts: the drinks, the food, and the service.
