We braved the snowy weather to lunch at Steuben's. I'd heard so much about their lobster roll, and it's taken me forever to get back there to try it. Since the last time I was at Steuben's (which was admittedly awhile ago now), they have raised the price on the lobster roll from a steep $18 to now a whopping $20. But I decided, what the hell, I might as well see what all the fuss was about.
Both Mr. M and I ordered the lobster roll. It came with a huge pile of their thin crispy fries, which I love. The roll itself initially looked disappointing - it looked suspiciously like a packaged store-bought hot dog bun for which you can buy 8 for 99 cents at King Soopers. "I'm paying $20 for this!?," I thought initially. It was also, however, generously filled with lobster chunks in a light, creamy sauce with not a lot of extra fillers - it really was just good, tender, lobster meat. There was also a strong buttery flavor as well, but I don't want to know exactly how much butter they put in each sandwich. Ignorance is bliss.
By the time I finished my sandwich, I was licking my fingers and wanting more. I sure hope I haven't developed yet another expensive addiction.
