Chef/owner Sam Hayward is dedicated to the precept that simple food—very, very pure and good food&3151;is better than any amount of processing or saucing could ever be. His showcase is this handsome place in the old area of Portland, where meats, fish, and, especially, vegetables are treated to wood fire or roasted in an oven until their goodness shines forth. This may sound too plain, but the creations belie that. And the lively ambience and sheen of sophistication make a visit to Fore Street a happy time.
