Maine is known for its fresh seafood, specifically lobster, and has many other foods native to its culinary culture that are unbreakably tied to the state.

The historical plaque was reported stolen from the Old Hill graveyard on Greenleaf Street in Newburyport on March 24, Newburyport police said in a press release.

"In the past, I've never really found a place that I would commit to staying for so long, and without hesitation, I was like, 'Where do I sign?' That's how much I love living here."

To be able to take a ship from new construction and watch it be built together by the ship yard, train with our team and bring into Boston Harbor for the first time, it's very amazing. I looked at the history books. I don't think we've had a submarine in Boston Harbor since sometime in the late '80s or early '90s.

The Old South Diner has sold its second $2 million lottery ticket this month, marking the restaurant's fifth lottery win of more than $1 million since March 2024.

East Coast oysters are known and loved over the world for the clean minerality and distinctive salinity, which is reflective of the cold Atlantic waters where they come from. Although Maine and Maryland get a lot of credit, oysters are present along the continent's entire eastern coast, as far north as Canada's Prince Edward Island all the way down to South Florida.

The haul of lobsters, Maine's best known export and a key piece of the state's identity and culture, has declined every year since 2021, and some scientists have cited as a reason warming oceans that spur migration to Canadian waters.

Taking in a show at Brunswick's Historic Ritz Theatre is like stepping into living history. Now a vibrant performance space managed by Golden Isles Arts & Humanities, the Ritz brings the community together with live performances, film, art, and culture in the heart of Historic Downtown Brunswick.

Generally, East Coast oysters are brinier than West Coast oysters. Eastern oysters, raised either in the Atlantic Ocean or in its estuaries, live in a much saltier environment. West Coast oysters are mostly raised in protected bays, estuaries, and tidal rivers, where there is much less salt.

Located on Mustang Island, about 40 miles north of Corpus Christi, Texas, is the small beach town of Port Aransas. Recently designated the "Fishing Capital of Texas" in 2025, Port Aransas is known for its sugary white sand beaches (there are 18 miles of them) and its bay waters, which are packed with redfish, black drum, flounder, and mahi-mahi.

Summer on the Cape is all about the beautiful beaches and amazing views, chill atmosphere, fantastic seafood, tons of entertainment with town band concerts, outdoor movies, and Cape Cod Baseball League games. The diversity of the Cape's 15 towns, along with spectacular shopping, make it a must-see place, along with all the amazing adventures you can do by air, land, and sea.

After 20 plus wonderful years, we have made the difficult decision to close the doors of DiParma Italian Table. This place has meant so much to our family and to our community, and we are incredibly grateful for the friendships, memories, and support we've shared over the years.

'I started crying,' Azar told me one afternoon last summer, as we sat on the sun-drenched porch of Gifford, overlooking the brick courtyard. Guests popped over to bid him hello, and he gently directed them over the lobby bar for a moment of respite from the heat. He continued the story: 'I was like, 'This is actually why I'm doing this.'

Nothing screams summer in New England more than a fresh, buttery lobster roll. Whether you like yours served cold and loaded with creamy filling or you prefer a bun stacked with warm, naked claws, lobster rolls are a staple part of the Northeastern diet - and they're often enjoyed in other parts of the country too. If you're a fan, then there's another seafood sandwich you should try, especially if lobsters aren't commonly found in your area: Scallop rolls.

For the first time in a century and after a multi-billion-dollar, decades-long clean-up, parts of the once toxic Boston Harbor waters meet water quality standards that will allow for direct harvest and human consumption of shellfish. The announcement came from the state's Division of Marine Fisheries at the start of the year. DMF said that water quality has improved significantly enough that both commercial and recreational shellfishers will be allowed to harvest shellfish for personal use or direct sale to consumers.

"The couple who bought it knows what they are getting into,"

But when you pull off that tail section, you will reveal inside the cavity something that stands out against all of the pink and white flesh - a strange green paste. For many bib-clad lobster eaters, this green stuff ends up in the bin along with the scraps of cracked and empty shells, but they don't know what they are missing. That green paste is called tomalley, and despite its potentially off-putting appearance, it's a part of the lobster experience begging to be savored.

In the winter of 2021, as the pandemic pressed life inward, Jenny McBride and Jo Gray began doing what so many did to stay sane: they went for walks. Each day, the couple looped through their Newton neighborhood, circling the same streets, passing the same houses, nodding at the same passersby. At first, the walks felt like freedom, a way to stretch their legs and explore beyond the walls of their duplex.

In New England, the official dipping buddy for creamy clam chowder is called a common cracker, and it's different than any other cracker in almost every possible way. For starters, it's larger (about the size of a Ritz cracker), rougher, and looks unmistakably old-school. The common cracker's flavor is also deliberately restrained. Wheaty, crunchy, and very hearty - these unleavened crackers swell slightly in creamy New England clam chowder. This makes them take on a dumpling-like quality, and it's not accidental.
