(Since most folks are local, we did not reserve a hotel block)
Favorite Small Businesses
- PennyPost (best store ever?)
- Misha’s coffee - there are two locations in Old Town. One at the Waterfront, and one on King St
- Old Town Books
- The Spice & Tea Exchange
Favorite Restaurants
- Brut Champagne and Wine Bar (Wine Bar and small plates - say hi to Dustin for us!)
- Fontaine Caffe & Creperie - they don’t take reservations so get there early!
- Sam Phao (low-key thai)
- Momo Sushi & Cafe (looking at you Urs!)
