The Menemsha Galley’s version of this beloved New England seafood sandwich is an exercise in culinary simplicity and a perfect encapsulation of the restaurant’s philosophy of balancing quality, fresh food and fair prices. It features a grilled, crunchy bun lightly coated with mayonnaise, layered with crispy lettuce leaves, and filled with savory chunks of lobster meat. Although you can request more if you wish, the minute amount of mayonnaise yields room on the flavor stage to the lobster while still playing an important role, meaning each bite prominently features the delectable lobster while still maintaining an enticing hint of the creamy condiment. At $14.95, why are you still reading this?
