By no means do I consider myself a lobster roll expert. But I do think it is safe to say that I am a food fanatic. While some people may follow the latest scores in golf, or football, I follow trends in food. I'll read review after review in order to find the best of the best in each food category. I consider a good meal a real treat, and always happy when something yummy enters my tummy.
My favorite lobster roll is from Bayside in Westport, MA. It is perfect**, in my opinion. Fresh, juicy lobster overflowing from a hotdog roll (see above, taken April 2007), then you can dip it into butter for extra tastiness. I also hold the opinion that a lobster roll is best enjoyed when you are actually near the ocean. Although I realize the lobsters are probably all bought from the same source whether they are made into lobster rolls inland or on the coast, something about eating seafood by the sea just seems to make it a bit more "fresh".
Many others share my enthusiasm for lobster rolls. See the following links to articles on lobster rolls if you are interested:

Goodluck. I hope you get to enjoy a Lobster Roll before the season ends which is usually Labor Day. (sigh). If you go, please eat one for me since I've got to resume my studying now.
** Homemade lobster rolls are actually quite tasty too. To do this, buy a live lobster, boil it. Chop the cooked meat and toss in butter (my preference) or mayo and any seasonings you feel like and squeeze into a toasted roll. Yum!
