Duckfat is a small restaurant and alternative sandwich shop in Portland, Maine.[1][2] Located at 43 Middle Street in the Old Port neighborhood, the restaurant was opened in 2005 by Rob Evans, a local chef. Evans also owns a nearby restaurant named Hugo's.[3] The name derives from the main menu item of Belgianfrench fries twice cooked in duckfat.[4] In 2004, the restaurant's tuna melt sandwich was named one of the top sandwiches in the United States by Esquire.[5]
