Wow, this dish had everything in it! It was SO delicious and definitely more refined than a simple fisherman’s stew. The seafood were cooked beautifully and the flavors were amazing.

Lobster roll – We’re On A Roll

Project 365: Day 16

It started raining last night and has continued raining today! Not very hard though, more like a sprinkle. I’m from Seattle, I’m used to the real stuff!

Today is the eve of my Birthday Weekend! Yay!!! So for lunch I decided to treat myself to a lobster roll from We’re On a Roll. It’s a food stand in front of New England Lobster Company. I needed a little pick-me-from to combat the gloomy weather. It IS almost my birthday, you know. Hehe! This is the first time I’ve been to this stand, but I’m so glad they’re here. There’s nothing else nearby except fast food joint and mediocre sandwich shops. It’s nice to have a nicer alternative.

The office also surprised me with a birthday cake from Suzanne’s Cake & Pastry in Millbrae. And I have to admit that I was truly surprised – I wasn’t expecting it. That was super sweet!

Lobster roll We're On A Roll

Cooked lobster stuffed in a warm split-top, buttered roll, topped with chopped red onions, celery and bell peppers. Served with homemade coleslaw and Tim’s Cascade poato chips. $15.50
We’re On A Roll, South San Francisco CA

At first I thought that this was a little overpriced. That’s a lot for lunch in South San Francisco! But you do get the side of coleslaw and chips, and there’s a lot of delicious lobster in that roll! They have the chopped vegetables in front of their lunch trailer so you can add as much or as little as you like.

They also have picnic tables nearby where you can eat your delicious roll, but since it was raining I ate mine in the car. Yum! I’d go back.

Crispy lobster turnovers – Hung To Seafood

Crispy lobster turnovers Hung To Seafood

4 large pieces of deep fried turnovers filled with lobster and garlic chives, served with salad sauce. $4.20
Hung To Seafood, South San Francisco

I didn’t know what to expect when I ordered this, but I was pleasantly surprised. The pieces were huge and I love the large chunks of lobster inside. I will defnitely order these again! Not sure if the salad sauce really added to the dumplings though.

6 ounce lobster tail – The Lobster House

6 ounce lobster tail The Lobster House

Steamed and served with drawn butter and lemon wedge, seasonal vegetables, rice pilaf and homemade sweet cabbage.  $21.95
The Lobster House, Palm Springs

I think that you can probably already see in this pic that the lobster is WAY overcooked.  Why, why, why!?  This was another sad plate at The Lobster House.  I just checked on Yelp and this place only has 2 stars.  I should have checked before we dined here!  The sides were throw-away items that did nothing to save the butchered lobster tail.
