New York Street Food

We’ve enjoyed most of the items on the Red Hook Lobster Truck menu, so we were really looking forward to one of the items we haven’t tried yet – the Lobster BLT ($10).

With the cold weather arriving, some of the vendors are adjusting their menus for the fall and winter.

Coolhaus now has artisanal hot chocolate and Schnitzel & Things announced they will soon be selling schweinebraten, a good cold weather pork shoulder dish.

Luke’s Lobster is serving New England clam chowder, and Red Hook Lobster Pound is serving New England clam chowder, corn chowder and downeast bisque.

Let’s get busy – It’s Chowda Time (and Bisque Too).

When the Red Hook Lobster Pound tweeted on Friday about having lobster macaroni and cheese, I said to myself “self, you gotta try that!”

There was a line of about 6 people in front of me, which moved at a good clip, but then another 8 or so came up behind me.  Busy day for Big Red on Friday, and lots of people were ordering the lobster mac & cheese, which cost $10.

When I got back to my office and opened the container, I was greeted with a glorious sight – chunks of lobster and several kinds of melted cheese.

We just got this announcement from Susan of the Red Hook Lobster Pound:

During August,  with each order on Big Red, get a raffle ticket.  The winner gets a lobster roll a week for a year!  The winner will only be announced on Twitter and Facebook.

The question is “Do you feel lucky”?  Even if you don’t win, you still get a delicious lobster roll for lunch with your raffle ticket.  Sounds like a good deal to us.

After enjoying an excellent lobster roll from the Red Hook Lobster Pound truck (Big Red) a few weeks ago, the next item on my agenda to try was their shrimp roll.

Today’s Lunch is a shrimp roll ($9) from the Red Hook Lobster Pound truck.  When Big Red first came out  weeks ago, the shrimp roll was $8.50, so they raised the price by $.50, but the lobster roll is still $16.  You can see the full menu here.
