Chefs Clark Frasier and Mark Gaier are known for their garden-to-table philosophy which they pioneered at Arrows Restaurant in Ogunquit more than twenty years ago. Our June Feast, “Casual on the Cove,” tells the story of the pair’s more casual Ogunquit eatery, MC Perkins Cove. The waterfront bistro features several dishes inspired by Gaier and Frasier’s childhoods. Below, the two chefs grant us access to one of these family secrets:  Clark’s mom’s special marinade.
