Back in the winter of 2004, after a long day of snowboarding at Sunday River My husband Paul and I stopped in for a beer and a bite to eat at a local establishment. Although the service was fine, I was amazed to discover what the restaurant passed off as food. Not only was it lacking in quality, but the prices were outrageously high.

It was this experience that has motivated me to open my own establishment. Being an Executive Chef, I wanted to make available to you the type of cuisine that can truly be called gourmet. Paul and I have spent years building this, and we are so proud to bring to you Gourmet in a Pinch. We hope you enjoy our creations as much as we love making them!

We strive for a superior customer experience through quality products and customer relationships. We offer great food with a clean work environment, spacious parking, a unique menu, attention to detail, and committed staff eager to educate our customers about the quality food we sell.

Owned and Operated by an Executive Chef with a strong passion for culinary cuisine and a Six Sigma Expert Blackbelt with a strong background in lean and agile operating plans and processes.

Paul and I built our home and have been living in beautiful Bethel, Maine for years now. We take as much pride in our community as we do in our business. We live, work and play in the great state of Maine. In our spare time Paul and I love to ski and snowboard during the winter months and hike and bike during the summers. We'll see you on the trails! You may even see Paul ripping it up on his kiteboard in some winter potato field or local pond.
