1. Lobster Roll - The Beach Plum
A classic, not to mention the gargantuan amounts of lobster meat and the oceanside location.
2. Lobster Quesadilla - Poco's Bow Street Cantina
Any time seafood meets Mexican food is alright in my book, as well as in my stomach.
3. Portsmouth Pie - The Common Man
Shrimp, scallops, cod and lobster meat baked with lobster cream sauce and topped with Ritz crumbs. Not exactly Common.
4. Lobster Eggs Benedict - Stairway Cafe
Lobster for breakfast? No complaints here.
5. Red Claws Pie - Portland Pie Company
Because pizza.
(I ran through a torrential downpour to pick up the above pictured pie and would do it ten times over again for one more slice.)
6. Lobster Roll(s) - Tuckaway Tavern
What, you thought lobster rolls would be on this list only once? The Tuckaway offers their heaping, messy rolls Maine-style (traditional, served cold with mayo), as well as served-hot, Connecticut-style. Plus, Mondays and Tuesdays for buy-one-get-one-free , so you can try both styles to compare, for science.
7. Lobster Bisque - Cabin Fever
Perfect for brisk, late-September nights/the beginning of sweater season.
8. Lemon Lobster Salad - River House Restuarant
HEALTHY!
9. Saffron Bouillabaisse - Oar House Restaurant
Shellfish for days.
10. Lobster BLT - River House Restaurant
You were still hungry after that salad...
11. Baked Stuffed Lobster - Petey's Summertime Seafood and Bar
My personal philosophy: stuffing food with other food is usually not a bad thing.
12. Lobster Mac and Cheese - Mr. Mac's
This is just basic logic.
13. Lobster and Sea Scallop Risotto -The 1785 Inn and Restaurant
Way fancy.
14. Boiled Lobster - Brown's Lobster Pound
I mean, why complicate things?
