Hi Neighbour: Portland Dry Goods

They have great music and good beers, we sure like the sound of Portland, Maine. We chatted with Dustin, the ole shop keep at Portland Dry Goods, to find out a little more about what goes down in his portside town.

M: What is Portland Dry Goods, beyond a retail store?

PDG: We’re a crew! Portland is incredibly tight knit, so we see our customers everywhere we go – they play us music, make our coffee, lose to us in pool (open challenge). Our customers and co-workers keep this place going.

M: After you close up shop, what’s the best thing to do in Portland now that spring is at our doorstep?

PDG: There is great music and great beer in this town, and they go well hand in hand. I’m excited for the Novare Res patio to open up. There’s plenty of hiking and skiing within reachable distance as well – the Audubon trail in Freeport is one of my favorite spots in the state for a walk.

M: What is your favorite piece from the current Muttonhead Spring/Summer ‘13 collection?

PDG: The Denim 5 panel cap and the Muttonhead x Topo Designs collab crewneck.

M: What is unique about your shop?

PDG: There aren’t too many spots in the world where you can walk a block from a high end tailor shop right to a lobster pound, but we’re in a lucky position where we can offer Maine Made products like Rancourt shoes to tourists, and offer amazing clothes from around the world (sup Canada) to locals.

M: This seasons “Good Sport” collection is strongly influenced by the 1970’s sporting culture and style. What kind of activities is your team getting up to this season?

PDG: There’s been talk of a bowling league… we’ll see if that gets off the ground. I’ll definitely be shooting some hoops though!

Hey Muttonhead, I recently bought the camp shorts in duck grey and am having troubles pairing it with a matching top. any suggestions? p.s I love the texture of the recycled hemp!

Hi Master Keynes :)

I would just treat your duck (recycled hemp) shorts as if they were chinos. They can practically be paired with everything from a basic t to a button up dress shirt (like our Umpire Shirt, we love tone on tone kits).

We would love to see what kits you come up with!

First harvest of the season! Homegrown argula tastes great in this Lemon Fusilli recipe.

1 tablespoon olive oil
2 cloves minced garlic
2 cups heavy cream
2 lemons
Sea salt and freshly ground black pepper
1 bunch broccoli
1 pound dried fusilli pasta
1/2 pound baby arugula
1/2 cup freshly grated Parmesan
1 pint grape or cherry tomatoes, quartered

Heat the olive oil in a medium saucepan over medium heat, add the garlic, and cook for 60 seconds. Add the cream, the zest from 2 lemons, the juice of 2 lemons, 2 teaspoons of salt, and 1 teaspoon of pepper. Bring to a boil, then lower the heat and simmer for 15 to 20 minutes, until it starts to thicken.

Meanwhile, cut the broccoli in florets and discard the stem. Cook the florets in a pot of boiling salted water for 3 to 5 minutes, until tender but still firm. Drain the broccoli and run under cold water to stop the cooking. Set aside.

Bring a large pot of water to a boil, add 1 tablespoon of salt and the pasta, and cook according to the directions on the package, about 12 minutes, stirring occasionally. Drain the pasta in a colander and place it back into the pot.

Immediately add the cream mixture and cook it over medium-low heat for 3 minutes, until most of the sauce has been absorbed in the pasta. Pour the hot pasta into a large bowl, add the arugula, Parmesan, tomatoes, and cooked broccoli. Toss well, season to taste, and serve hot.

Our pal Parasol teamed up with our new Toronto stockist Woodlawn to bring you some fresh tunes for the sunshine season! Check out their first Spring Fling mix and if you like what you hear spread it around mutts.

“For the first entry in Woodlawn Shop’s mix series I wanted to create a soundtrack to get you from your new tops to pool hops, through pre-drinks to re-drinks and remind us all why we break up with winter every year. Bring it along for any hang, just don’t be surprised if it asks to borrow your sunscreen. ” - $Aidan$ £Johnston£ (aka Parasol)
