SeaGrass Bistro, Yarmouth

The chef at one of Greater Portland?s best new restaurants considers her kitchen to be yours.

Anyone driving down Forest Falls Drive in Yarmouth on a certain morning in September might have noticed a couple of things about the then-nine-month-old SeaGrass Bistro. While the dining room was still draped with shadow, the lights above the range and ovens were burning brightly. That pickup truck that always seems to be parked out front was there, and the owner of that truck, Chef Stephanie Brown, was busily working inside.

One might expect there to be morning prep shifts at this increasingly popular restaurant in Yarmouth, but in this case Chef Brown wasn't preparing the evening's menu; she was making sandwiches, granola, and candied apples for local students on a field trip -- to be delivered directly to them, in the middle of the woods.
