tourist round 2

Just to counter my sweet post, I will add that if you like lobster as much as I do (uh, sometimes more than life itself) you should have been already to Luke's.  As someone who has had lobster rolls all over new england, NYC and CT, I must say, this is my absolute favorite. 

The owner grew up in Maine, grew up around the business of lobstering and was so upset upon moving to nyc and discovering the lack of yummy and affordable lobster rolls, he decided to just start doing them himself.  The meat is always fresh, in fact, some nights if they're out, that's it, try again tomorrow.

I like them the best because not only is there a full quarter pound of lobster on the toasted split top bun, but it's mostly claw.  You can opt out of the tiny dab of mayo and butter on the roll (if you're crazy i guess) and the special celery-ish seasoning shaken on top is the perfect amount of pop without drowning out the other ingredients.

They also have crab, shrimp, chowder, etc.  But really, if you've read this far you're in for the good stuff.  GO!

Post script... I've made myself so hungry typing this entry I'm already texting friends to see who's with me on a lobster run tonight.
