the new menu has already started but i stopped in for lunch today - limited menu of course but the new lobster roll - sings on the tongue. so tasty. and do go while the banana pudding is in the house. it's not a mainstay, just visiting and it's worth any effort to get there soon. looking forward to the sardines as well!

Takes real balls to serve a lobster roll in this town these days. I wish them luck.

They've been serving them for a couple of years so I believe the danger is over.

oh, good. although i have to say i'm partial to tarragon and hoping to see it again... anyway, i'm on a major lobster roll kick lately and eating around town in a little comparative exercise. haven't been to Tides in a while so i'm due. Pearl's last night was fab - as good as ever. (surprisingly, Mary's wasn't great)the new menu has already started but i stopped in for lunch today - limited menu of course but the new lobster roll - sings on the tongue.

Fried clam bellies and oysters.
The famous lobster roll, with yucca chips.
Holy crap! I'm definitely returning for the bouilliabaise.

Look kinda extra-mayonnaisey -- but what the hell, worth a try.

mayonnaisey, but works well with the bun.
I'm not so sure about lobster roll as a dish, but anyway, you take what you can.
6:30pm. Out of sardines. Out of whole lobster.

In Tina Howe's play The Art of Dining, after the chef-owner's husband had eaten up all the grapes for the duck, he tells her to just use canned peaches. He also drinks a whole pot full of hollandaise, and cannot identify the "spice" she thrusts into his mouth: salt.

Better than chicken-fried steak, right?

Damning with faint praise?
I wonder why a similar shrimp roll hasn't gotten the same degree of attention. You can make a much tastier version at the price range that the market supports.

Semiology, ain't it?
Truly. I like lobster rolls, I would like crab rolls if I could get them. Lobster rolls make a statement which shrimp rolls don't.

Of course. I think some good marketing can make the shrimp roll happen (giant live prawn roll, of course). Not so sure about whitefish salad rolls.
