The Portland eatery Quaintrelle revealed on November 19 that Will Preisch, a former chef at Holdfast Dining, will take over the kitchen on Southeast Clinton Street with a stylish, intimate neighborhood pop-up serving casually sophisticated cuisine.
In retrospect, the event seemed more like a trial run than a pop-up. Quaintrelle wrote a farewell statement just four days prior to the meal, signaling the end of an eight-year tenure in which the restaurant moved across town, survived a pandemic, and continuously upheld the fine-dining banner in a place with few such options.
