    I live on an island just off the coast of bar harbor. Its always fascinating to me watching people experience my neck of the woods. Next time you're in the area you need to have an authentic lobster boil on the beach. I'd be more then happy to do that for you if its something you guys are interested in.

    Here is what I learned just getting back from Maine for a week. There two major styles of lobster rolls. The Maine lobster roll is going to be served cold with a toasted bun and light mayo. The Connecticut lobster roll is warm and buttery. The lobster roll from Maine is the cold lobster salad you see at the grocery stores. It is tasty but not worth buying more than once in a life unless you love cold seafood on warm bread

    • @georgeandcris

    The average price for a lobster roll should always be included in these type of videos. In Bar Harbor they go for close to 40 dollars. And it’s cold lobster on a hot dog bun that’s all. Down the road ten mins away it’s $25 -$30 for one roll. My suggestion is ordering an entire lobster platter and asking for a roll on the side. That’s about 45 dollars but comes with so much more

    • @georgeandcris
      @georgeandcris  Рік тому

    We went to coastal maine just this last May. Aside from the amazing trip we had, my experience was that the lobster roll was the biggest let down of the whole trip. I had seen so many video talking about HOW AMAZING they were...well 36 dollars later after biting into a cold soggy roll...i was beyond dissapointed. We went to one of the best known lober roll shacks too. Who wants to bite into cold, wet, chewy lobster?!? I was expecting the lobster to be freshly steamed and warm...not the case. To each their own i guess.

    I just came back from Bar Harbor. Was a bit disappointed with the lobster rolls. First and foremost very pricey. Even at lobster shacks. You are going to pay between 30-40 bucks for abt 4oz of lobster meat on a hot dog bun (probably a bit smaller then most hotdog buns). Second most are served cold and not warm (this preference of course). I also noticed the buns, on the inside are kinda perked up, the bread that is, giving the illusion that the buns are small but bursting with lobster meat but that’s not the case. I live in NY and I go to a restaurant out in Mattituk that makes lobster rolls that would put those in Maine to shame. Triple the size, and cheaper by a few bucks. And this restaurant not even known for lobster rolls. The whole lobster is in the roll. The Maine lobster rolls are not lacking flavor though and Bar Harbor beautiful nonetheless!

    • @georgeandcris
      @georgeandcris  Рік тому +2

      We would have to agree about them being pricey. We didn’t expect that. And after trying both hot and cold rolls we both said we preferred the hot. It sounds like you have a good lobster spot though! We may ask for more details if we make our way to NY. 😂
