Waiter, can you bring me a view?
I was excited to receive the latest copy of Portland Magazine (Maine’s Award Winning Magazine!), and find that Black Point Inn was included in in the “Local Flavor” section of the April 2009 Issue. In an article called “Waiter, Can You Bring Me a View?”, Allison Richards profiles over a dozen local “hotels offering five-star cuisine and drop-dead beautiful views”. The article begins: “The wonderful thing about Maine’s ocean and lakeside hotel restaurants with wrap around views is, beyond the steaming hot-boiled lobster, the sweet ears of butter-sugar corn, the strawberry shortcake – or say, at [petite] dejuener, blueberry muffins true as a morning in July, we are able to feast our eyes. That is, the view is the floor show.”
Great sunset views from the porch of the Chart Room
Here’s what they say about The Point and The Chart Room at Black Point Inn: “In the Chart Room, look west to see the sunset over the far beach of Pine Point and Mt. Washington. Here, the Scarborough and Nonesuch rivers meet and drain out to sea past Prouts Neck. Our second ocean-view dining is in The Point. Facing east, we see the open ocean, with Ram and Richmond Islands. We recommend classic butter-poached lobster with lemon saffron risotto and spring peas while you feast your eyes.”
