Food Event

Get ready for a brand-new culinary showdown in Ogunquit! The Ogunquit Lobster Bite Challenge brings together top chefs to compete head-to-head for the title of Best Lobster Bite in Town! Sample a variety of creative and mouthwatering lobster dishes, then cast your vote for the Guest Favorite while a panel of expert judges selects their top pick. The winning chef of the judges’ vote will earn a coveted spot in Portland’s Harvest on the Harbor competition.

Co-sponsored by Vanessa Santarelli of Your Maine Concierge, this immersive evening features an eight-course small plate menu, designed to pair with iconic films projected on the big screen. As each course is served, corresponding scenes from the film that inspired it will fill the historic theatre, blending flavor and story in a playful, elegant, and unforgettable format. This one-night-only menu will never be repeated, making it a true collector’s item for the senses.
