Have you ever eaten in a garage?

I mean an honest to goodness previously grease stained filling station?

.

Thankfully the grease and transmissions are gone and a Wiscasset, Maine landmark restaurant once known as Le Garage (clever, no?) is now Water Street Kitchen and Bar.

It’s a great place to drop in for a craft cocktail…

.

Fresh basil limeade with Tito’s please.

.

.

A cream of asparagus soup for the spouse…

.

.

And some spicy Cajun shrimp for me to start.

Never let it be said their bartenders don’t go the extra mile for top shelf.

🤣

We were happily drinking and schmoozing so I didn’t photograph our entrees, but dessert was a delight.

Creamy limoncello cake for the win.

On the way home?

We marveled at the tourists who don’t know any better and wait on endless lines in the heat at Red’s Eats.

Their lobster is frozen and comes from Canada.

No self respecting Mainer would be caught dead there.
