Wowed by Lobster Strudel
 

Check out the Cafe Bluefish on Bar Harbor's Cottage Street. Specifically, try their nationally recognized Lobster Strudel. It really makes the famous Maine lobster sing! It's a heavenly pocket of phyllo pastry containing succulent lobster in a cheese and carmelized onion sauce that will have you doing back-flips! To find Cafe Bluefish, be sure you walk all the way down Cottage street or you might miss it. You can get it with salad or vegetables. If you select the salad greens, you'll find the salad dressing is a perfect complement to the strudel.

Sounds like an ad. Hmmmm one ad, oops I mean post, and very descriptive.

Pickyeater, You should make some other posts so your ad isn't so obvious. Although I will admit it does sound delicious -lol!

I generally regard a pickyeater as a person who has little experience with good food or appreciation of anything but a very narrow limited area of what he/she likes. So I wouldn't take much stock in what a pickyeater found that he liked.

"It really makes the famous Maine lobster sing"???

WHO writes like that?

And IMHO a true "Pickyeater" would not even touch that! yummy!

"WHO writes like that?"

Anyone writing ads for a living.

I've heard a lobster sing when I've dumped it into a boiling pot of water, and it ain't a pretty song.

good one, Frankie!!

This is the same restaurant reviewed by someone on Trip Advisor:

"We had dinner for two at Cafe Bluefish. It was $70 plus tip. Even though we were the first couple in the restaurant for the evening meal, the service was quite slow. My husband had to eat most of his meal without a beverage, even after requesting a refill.

We had the lobster streudel and cajun swordfish; both were served with curried sweet potatoes and bland coleslaw. The food was decent but nowhere near the quality we expected for the price.

The final blow was waiting more than 20 minutes to get our check after we requested it.

The food wasn't worth the wait or the price. We recommend dining elsewhere."



Maybe the lobster was singing in an attempt to get the attention of a waiter?

:-D Neo, that is hilarious!

Touche, Neopat! ((Y))

Hi. The Lobster Strudel *is* delicious but there was no singing. We had it at the Blue Sage Bistro in Town Hill, the sister restaurant. The side dishes were yummy. The service was great - efficient and friendly. It was a wonderful meal. So there : )

bassharborbaby- see, now YOU i belive(!) since you've posted here before on other topics.

That's the way the internet is--it can always come back and bite you in the .
We did just return from Maine and I did have a lucious lobster pie in Freeport, but the lobster everywhere was so perfectly cooked, it would be hard to choose.

I'm telling you...try the lobster pot pie at Michael Mina and you will think you've died and gone to heaven. It's pretty rich, though, and not for the faint of heart. An entire lobster and a bisque-like sauce. And a whopping $74. But out of this world. Sighhh.
