Mayo or Butter?

I’d like to speak to the manager!!!

I was called to a table last night because two of the guests hated the lobster roll.

I get there and they tell me that they are Mainers and this is NOT a lobster roll. Explaining that a lobster roll either has butter or Mayo and definitely does not have tarragon in it.

I ask them to explain.

And they continue that everyone wants a traditional lobster roll.

And I explain that the lobster shack next to us has a traditional lobster roll.

And.

That 7,429 restaurants in a 30 mile radius including McDonald’s has a traditional lobster roll.

We are not those restaurants.

We respect those restaurants.

We enjoy those restaurants.

I had a fried fish sandwich from next door last week.

But we are different.

And.

The menu tells you that we are different.

Embrace the difference.
