When There's Nothing in the Fridge, We Go to Hot Suppa

“God, it’s good to be home,” I said, chowing down. My corned beef hash was superb, not too salty, crisp, pressed on a griddle, two over-easy egg yolks seeping into it. The food there is reliably good, whether it’s catfish tacos or shrimp and grits or pulled-pork mac and cheese or Creole meatloaf. ”

"Not only was the chicken peppery and crisp, but its perfect partner, the waffle, was light, faintly sweet and (this is a sincere compliment) a nearly identical copy of one you might taste at a famous Southern diner chain."

"Scratch-made breakfast specialties—such as rave-worthy corned-beef hash, biscuits and sausage gravy, French-style omelets, and burritos—draw the faithful to this venerable brick Victorian in the city’s West End."

Eggs Benedict with Pulled Pork and Fried Green Tomatoes

"This delectable mountain of breakfast love might send you flailing back into bed. The luscious, hickory-smoked pork complements the bright flavor and texture of the fried green tomatoes. If the silky and slightly citrusy hollandaise sauce didn’t mingle so perfectly with the runny egg yolk, it even might feel like gilding the lily."

“A perfect example of their commitment to making the food as true to form as possible lay within the quality of their grits. “So I began investigating before discovering the Geechie Boy Mill, a small, family-run operation where I immediately established a personal connection,” says Moses.“

“Other morning highlights include… just about everything at Hot Suppa!, which is committed to from-scratch cooking. Their corned beef hash is Portland's best breakfast dish.”

"Their stellar corned beef hash is a reminder that this is a New England joint, but the rest of the menu pulls from highlights across the Southeast, ranging from chicken and waffles to chicken and sausage gumbo."

"... if you haven’t crushed a Bloody Mary over some fried green tomatoes on a late Sunday morning in 90 degree weather, you’re not a Mainer. Southern-influenced and cooked to perfection, Hot Suppa is amazing."

"Hot Suppa is a New England diner crossed with a Southern roadside cafe. The corned beef hash, grits, Cubano sandwich, and laid-back atmosphere have earned Hot Suppa a loyal local following."

“True Grits: You might be ravenous, you might be hung over, but you’re reassured. Sunny-side-ups arrive perfectly quivery. The bread’s from Sorella’s Bakehouse on Anderson Street, so the toast is excellent. Sausage links are fat and juicy. The grits are in their own league, impossibly creamy, pale yellow, coarse-ground. “There’s nothing in them except butter,” says a server. “A good amount of butter, but that’s it.”

“Fans of the Portland eatery are legion – with good reason.

There’s a lot of reasons people in Portland love going to Hot Suppa. Here’s one of them: My breakfast arrived on a big blue platter in what seemed like two minutes flat, and didn’t taste like it had been sitting under a heat lamp for hours. It was fresh, hot and delicious.”

“The brainchild of brothers Moses and Alec Sabina, the pair trekked across the US in search of inspiration for their diner-style restaurant, which they opened in an old Victorian home in 2006. American classics get a reboot thanks to top-notch ingredients.”
