For Christmas 2 years ago my son used the referenced Goldbelly website to have 4 Lobster Rolls shipped to me from the Clam Shack in Kennebunkport Maine. They were delicious, but I believe it was absurdly expensive.

Cousins Maine Lobster Rolls has food trucks that come around the area pretty regularly. They have options, a couple of cold lobster with mayo varieties (like seafood/crab salad, but with lobster meat), and hot lobster with melted butter (aka a Connecticut shoreline recipe) or melted garlic butter. They also have lobster toasted cheese sandwiches sometimes, and tater tots with lobster (the tots are actually pretty good). Prices around $28 each, which is expensive but it's Maine lobster.

If you order from Goldbelly and get a Clam Shack 4-pack of lobster rolls in a kit (lobster meat, 4 rolls, mayo, lemon, and butter), it'll set you back $165, which is just over $41 per sandwich.

$28 isn't too bad. They charge about that for lobster rolls at the Little Fin in Sawgrass, and they are horrible

I my particular case there was some sentiment associated Clam Shack Lobster rolls. I have a vacation house in Kennebunkport that is a few hundred yards from the Clam Shack but which I vary rarely visit anymore. The Clam shack is one of my favorite places.

I know it’s subjective, but we have not found one yet that passes the minimum quality standards.

The food diversity here isn't good at all. There are no Indian restaurants, and the only Thai one is way up North, and average at best.

We go to the P.F. Changs in the Mall at Millenia once a month to get our fix.

There are also several decent places to eat in Leesburg and Ocala.

We have been buying from Goldbelly for about a decade now, we get the Imo's pizzas from St. Louis. They are about 90% as good as fresh at about 200% the price.
