I Will Begrudgingly Admit The Lobsta Truck is Awesome
We here at Midtown Lunch have always believed that $10 is the most you should have to spend to get a delicious lunch near where you work. Of course that often puts things like good sushi a bit out of reach, and lobster rolls? Well, let’s just say I don’t eat a lot of lobster rolls. As amazing as they are, there is something about spending $15-29 for a sandwich whose only effect on your appetite is to make you want another one as soon as you finish the first. So, when the Lobsta Truck launched a few months ago, serving up $12 lobster rolls, I had mixed emotions.
Emotion #1. Screw that. I don’t care if they’re serving foie gras topped with caviar pearls individually wrapped in gold leaf. Lunch from a food truck should never cost more than $10. Cheapness is half the reason people love street food.
Emotion #2. $12 is actually not bad for a lobster roll. I do love lobster rolls. If I pay the extra $2 from change that’s scattered around my house, then that count as a $10 Midtown Lunch right?
I suppose I could try it just this once…
