The Quest For A Great Lobster Sandwich
For many of us in food service, September affords an opportunity to step away from the stove and maybe take a drive to try other chefs’ food.
A busman’s holiday, to be sure…but it’s a welcome break and also informative to see something new and different. Learning and enjoyment together, it’s a great combo !
There’s only so much “gilding the lily” that’s appropriate to really good, fresh lobster meat. I’ve hit all the best places in search of ecstasy at lunch time, Red’s Eats, Claws, Sprague’s, McLoons Lobster Shack and plenty of others.
But I found it …Mecca …at Home Kitchen Cafe, James Hatch’s excellent breakfast and lunch jointing Rockland, Maine.
They put out a stacked lobster BLT that was an embarrassment of riches, so to speak. So good that I was the embarrassed one when I polished it off in record time…
I recommend the Home Kitchen Cafe in Rockland heartily. And you won’t even have to fight the seagulls for your lunch!
