Lobsta Land, Gloucester, MA
Jul. 30th, 2010 04:11 pmI've been on a lobster kick. I pine for it all time, but I can go months without eating it. And then suddenly I have to eat it! Lobster is cheap right now, luckily.
My sweet sister made lobster for dinner on Monday. She got it from Carey's Catch in Lexington, just up Mass. Ave. from the Arlington Trader Joe's. She served clam chowder, corn on the cob and steamed lobster. Yum. My husband mentioned this dinner at a rehearsal (he missed dinner for the rehearsal!) and folks said they'd love to go out for lobster. So we drove up to Gloucester last night to our favorite place - LOBSTA LAND! It's easy to find - you can see it from Rte 128. Get off at Exit 12 and go around to the left.
Lobsta Land sounds like a dive, a fish shack etc. but it is NOT. It is an amazing restaurant, with a real chef. Sure, they have fried shrimp and clam chowder. But they also have a HUGE menu with items like seafood risotto, scallops satay, Szechuan Peppercorn Crusted Ahi Tuna With Ponzu-Lime Vinaigrette, and amazing specials that combine elements of Italian, Asian and modern cooking with the freshest seafood around. It is definitely the kind of place where you should not make up your mind on what to order before looking at the specials.

We had a lovely table looking out over the marsh at sunset.
I got to taste lots of dishes last night:
