Dinner on Wednesday night was at the Van Der Kaay's in Kennebunk.
One of the stately old homes along Summer Street as you head down to the "Port" Mary Jo and Erik have done a marvelous job in not only preserving it's past but in adding their own modern touches.
Dinner was provided by Chef Steven True and his crew
from the Nonantum Resort, in Kennebunkport.

These are my only two scheduled events from the Kennebunkport Festival, which runs thru Sunday, but I may try to squeeze in one more this weekend. Proceeds from the festival go to Share Our Strength Maine which funds programs to alleviate hunger in kids. Just a reminder, Share Our Strenght's / Taste of The Nation event in Portland is coming on June 26th. Tickets for this event can be purchased in advance on their website. A good idea as it sells out every year.
This year's Kennebunkport Festival is Produced & Promoted by Maine Magazine in cooperation with the Kennebunkport Festival Committee.
