IMO lobster ralls are way overrated. Most places serve you second rate
lobster meat drowned in cheap mayo with lots of filler like celery added,
and it's on a Wonder-bread style roll. The best places use good lobster and
decent bread but it's still just a lobster and mayo sandwich. Worth trying,
to be sure, but there are so many more interesting things you can do with
lobster.
