Devin Finigan is a chef whose cuisine celebrates the rich natural surroundings and local ingredients of Maine, in the northeastern United States.

Raised by a father who was a chef, she opened her own restaurant, Aragosta, in the coastal town of Stonington, Maine, in 2013.

She further developed her skills through stages at several renowned restaurants, including three-Michelin-starred establishments such as The French Laundry, Per Se, Blue Hill at Stone Barns, and SingleThread. In 2019, she relocated Aragosta to a wooded property overlooking Goose Cove, an inlet on Deer Isle, Maine.

Her cuisine, centred on local seafood and seasonal ingredients, has earned widespread acclaim. In 2024, Aragosta was ranked the second-best restaurant in the United States by the American food magazine Food & Wine.

A Kitchen on Goose Cove is Devin Finigan's first cookbook, presenting 75 recipes inspired by the natural abundance and culinary traditions of Maine, where her restaurant is located.

The recipes range from regional classics such as lobster rolls and mussel chowder to scallops with wild leek sauce, duck breast with peach sauce, tomato galette, and the traditional American dessert, whoopie pies.

Featuring ingredients characteristic of Maine, including lobster, shellfish, honey, fiddleheads (young fern shoots), seasonal fruits, and grains, the book offers both traditional regional dishes and contemporary interpretations of local cuisine.

Accompanied by approximately 100 photographs, the book also captures Maine's natural landscapes, food culture, and the distinctive atmosphere of Aragosta.

A book that offers an insight into Devin Finigan's cuisine, where the bounty of the sea and land meets contemporary gastronomy.
