There are few things that I love more in the summer than getting some kind of fried fish meal or lobster from one of the great shacks in New England. Tonight I am lucky enough to be staying near the water and even luckier to be 10 minutes from a great shack with a big ice cream menu and all kinds of delicious seafood options.
It is important to note that I am not a seafood lover. My list of edible seafood is short. But tops on this list is lobster and that includes a good ol' lobster roll. Tonight I had a delicious lobster roll served in the appropriate hot dog bun. Now, this lobster roll was very good but it did not compare to the the lobster roll I had on Cape Cod earlier this summer. That lobster roll was perfect. Lobster was busting out of the roll and it did not have too much mayo.
Tonight's roll had lots of lobster and a good amount of mayo, however it was quite messy and dripped everywhere. I blame the fact that there was a large lettuce leaf between the bun and the lobster meat. I also blame the fact that we drove 10 minutes back to the house before we ate. (I take some responsibility!)
I would also like to say that the french fries were delicious and so was the lemonade. The meal was capped off by sitting outside with good friends looking out over the ocean.
All in all an amazing summer meal on a lovely summer evening.
I'll be here all weekend so be on the lookout for commentary about the ice cream...the flavors looked pretty darn good.

I've got to say that a lemonade and lobster roll sounds dreamy. I have one question though. Was is a crystal light variety of lemonade? Or lemonade with actual lemons and pulp. I prefer the latter.
