Portland’s Grand Dame hotel, The Eastland Park,
has announced that on April 16, it opened Adeline’s Grille,
named for Ms. Adeline Rines. Mrs. Rines was the wife of the original
developer
of The Eastland Park Hotel.  Mr. & Mrs. Rines travelled the
world and these travels influenced the various design schemes present
throughout the hotel when it was originally built in 1927. Adeline
Rines was also the first woman admitted to the Bar Association
in
Cumberland County, Maine.
Adeline’s Grille features a warm and casual,
friendly décor, which captures the historic roots of the
hotel. The historic concept includes actual reproductions of
newspaper articles
featuring the hotel, old photography as well as blown up postcards
of the property during the last 75 years.
The menu is designed around "upscale pub food" and
will feature a Chowder of the day, and local seasonal offerings.
The
same menu is available for lunch and dinner, as well as room
service to cater to the Eastland Park’s hotel guests.
