The Unique Amish Restaurant In Maine With No Electricity Or Refrigerators
At this point, everyone in Maine knows that this is one of the best food states in the nation. With bigger towns like Portland, Rockland and Bangor making waves in national media and the smaller towns with special hidden spots bringing up the rear, things are looking pretty good if you’re looking for restaurant-goers in Maine. But, the one thing that might be a surprise is this spot in Unity. No electricity and zero refrigeration makes this place one-of-a-kind.
Located in the idyllic (and tiny!) town of Unity, Maine you'll find a unique charcuterie that's operated by a small Amish family.
Following the Amish rules that mandate there be no technology, chef Matthew Secich (whose family recently joined the local Amish community) opened the aptly named Amish Charcuterie filling a gap that nobody knew they had!
It helps that Secich's past includes working some of the highest rated restaurants in DC, Chicago and Jackson Hole. Something about his past life as an upscale chef makes walking into Amish Charcuterie even more special.
Amish Charcuterie is located at Leelyn Rd., in Unity, Maine. They’re open Wednesday, Friday and Saturday from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. You can call them on 207-948-1777.
Michelle has lived in many places, but counts Maine as one of the best. In addition to the smell of ocean water in the air on rainy days in Portland, she loves puppies, photography, funny people, the Maine Red Claws, traveling, fresh tomatoes, Cambodia and filling out forms.
