Lobstah Roll dilemma

[Mudder]

Had lobstah roll at Beach Plum in Hampton, NH on Sunday, had one today at Sullivan's on Castle Island in South Boston. They are both best I ever had, all lobstah, only a hint of of butter on a toasted NE type hot dog bun. The view from both places is beautiful and free! Can't beat it.

I care and I'm jealous. If you're still up there stop at Lena's Clam Shack in Salisbury Beach. Same family runs that in the summer and Lena's down here in Silver Springs on Rt 40 Nov-May. And why doesn't any supermarket down here sell NE style hot dog rolls with the split top?

I grew up in Boston. We spent many a day at Castle Island. Currently live 35 miles west of Boston. You from the area originally?

You must have lobstah 3 times per day if you are a true New Englander. (Vermont doesn't count). Try a lobstah omlet for breakfast. Lobstah roll for lunch, and lobstah newburg or a baked stuffed lobstah for dinnah. Pure heaven.

Should lobster rolls be served hot or cold? Seems to me northeast of Boston they've been cold, with mayo. West of Boston served hot, with melted butter. I prefer the melted butter.

[Sandtrap328]

Best lobster roll IS found at Red's Eats in Wiscasset, Maine.

Downright delicious and the lobster roll contains all the meat from the entire lobster.

Been there. You are understating the fabulous flavor. But great effort, and I understand your love for the lobstah.

There is one brand I found at Walmart that has the split top hot dog rolls but for the life of me I can't remember the brand. As a former Northeasterner I miss those too! Was it friehoffer brand that had the split top up North? My husband is constantly asking why we cannot get a nice fresh Lobsta here in Florida?? We are due to go back to,the Adirondacks this summer and that will be the closest he will get to fresh seafood. He swears he's going to get a huge lobsta at a place called The Log Jam when we visit. You pick your own right from the tank!

I'm sure your lobster rolls were ok, but if you want the best you need to go to Maine. Your accent is not very good either.

Publix in Colony has the split NE buns!!

Best Lobstah roll down here is at the Celebration Town Tavern. They're so close to the airport I believe they have fresh New England seafood flown in daily. Ipswich fried clams, Large delicious scallops and cold water Maine lobsters. It'seems about an hour from The Villages

[mixsonci]

lobster rolls are served cold with little bit of mayo. Boiled lobster or baked stuffed lobster is served hot with drawn butter. Beach Plum now has 3 restaurants in NH (Hampton, Epping and Portsmouth). They are WONDERFUL. Their lobster bisque is the best I have ever had (huge chunks of lobster meat, not just soup) and I was born and raised north of Boston.

[TomPerry]

Best lobstah rolls are Bob's Clam Shack in Kittery Maine! The best fried clams and scallops too! Located next door to Kittery Trading Post, Kittery, ME just off Exit 3 on Maine Turnpike!

[jblum315]

Best lobster roll at Fat Boys in Brunswick. The lobster can be cold but the buttered roll should be freshly toasted

Ok, we all have our favorite lobstah places! But I think we all agree that MA, ME, and NH are THE places to enjoy. My son in law told us about Red's the other day, might have to check it out.
And paper1, my accent is off because I grew up in the land of the best cinnamon buns in the entire world, Philadelphia! Lived in Boston area for about 35 years.
Feeling a need for lobstah omelet.

[raynan]

OpMoochler, any idea brand name on those buns? I can't find them.

Has anyone had a lobster roll on the Veranda of The Chatham Bars Inn in Cape Cod? Last year it was $35+ per lobster roll and I can honestly say it was worth every penny. We could not finish the roll, I'm going back this year just to make sure I was not imagining it.

They have elevated the Lobster Roll to food fit for the Gods!

[KearyA]

Red's Eats in Wiscasset, ME. By far the best Lobster Rolls.

[Bosoxfan]

The Maine Dinah!!

[Mudder]

I had forgotten about Chatham Bars Inn.......very yummy.
So many places, so little time........

Here's a photo of a lobster roll (minus one bite) from James Hook & Co. in Boston. Delicious.

Publix at Grand Traverse (the one near Brownwood) carries Pepperidge Farm split top hot dog rolls. At that store they are on the top shelf in the bread aisle.

Thank you.

Standish, that is part of Massachusetts isn't it?

[borjo]

Around here check out the food trucks. We've had Cousin's Maine Lobster as seen on Shark Tank up at Buffalo Ridge and at Mount Dora.

Up until 1820 when Maine became a state. Standish is a Maine village near the southern end of Sebago Lake.
