Custom Deluxe, our Chevy truck, stays down in Marfa, Texas but
Custom Deluxe, the restaurant, (
"North Country Cuisine") has opened in Biddeford, Maine, an old textile town whose character and spunk--and astonishing, heartbreaking complex of
redbrick ex-textile mills---we've always admired. Have a look at this
AL post on Biddeford morphology. The town seems poised to be the Brooklyn of Portland, which is much better than being the Paterson, New Jersey of Portland, which it was for too long. I'm okay with urban renaissance so long as shopowners don't "curate" and the word "artisanal" is never, ever used.
