Maine is the only place in the United States where you can find Atlantic puffins, adorable little seabirds with awkward walks and bright, colorful beaks that, more than a century ago, were practically extinct.

New England Summertime Sandwich of Choice!
|
A summer dining essential across New England is the lobster roll. It was first made famous on the shores of Connecticut in the 1920s and quickly gained popularity along the northern New England coastline. Lobster rolls are served both hot and cold, however the warmer version is considered “the original”. We prefer the mayonnaise-based version. Our favorite lobster roll is at The Oyster Bar in Grand Central Station, or click on
Kay’s Lobster Roll
for different experience. Also, we’d be happy to send you Kay’s recipe!
