My 2 cents. Trying to recreate the fine dining experience of home kind of misses the point of traveling. To me it sounds like you want to stack the restaurants in NH against Seattle and prove they are as good.
Personally I would rather rub elbows with the locals and have a lobster roll sitting at the bar at Walters Basin rather than being fussed over by waiters at some stuffy restaurant.
There are so many good choices of places that have great food, good people and a genuine NH experience but are not "white table cloth"
To each his own.
