Lobsta Killah

It’s Wednesday, so it must be Food Truck day in Century City!  Today Lobsta Truck (www.lobstatruck.com) graced our area with a visit (along with Lake Street Creamery – but I opted out of dessert today).  I had not yet had the pleasure of experiencing the Lobsta yet, so was glad to see they were here.
Like many of the food trucks, the stick to a limited menu, and do it very well.  Basically you only have three options:  Lobsta Roll, Crab Roll or Clam Chowder.  They do offer extras like chips, sodas….and even Whoopie Pie.  I’m not a fan of lobster, so I opted for the Crab Roll.  The options for it are:  mayo or butter.  Being more of a purist, I opted for the butter.  And let me tell you, if you just want crab, this is the dish to order.  On a toasted bun they piled on crab meat (mixed with butter).  Pure, simple, basically unadulterated.  The only thing I could recommend to make it a smidge better would be a lemon wedge to squeeze over the crab (but it really isn’t necessary). 

I paired my roll with a page of Cape Cod potato chips and a soda.  It was deeeelish!  And I can appreciate a simple sandwich – it is what they call it – a crab roll.  No garnish, no filler, no fluff…..just CRAB!  And the total cost of my whole meal was $15 – not bad.  Can’t wait to see who parks in CC next week!
