In June we asked the Chef to come up with Summer Specials, an insert to the menu, featuring local ingredients that we (mostly) source from the numerous Farmer’s Markets.
“Oh, and a lobster roll. It’s New England after all”
(Our Facebook Fans voted 3:1 for the Lobster Roll over the Fried Oyster Club)
He rolled out an incredible menu, despite the fact that the majority still seeks same ol same ol when not at the beach. And the beach is where I happened to be, for “a couple” of days, eating same ol same ol myself (Mguirks, Browns, Tuna Striker, that “won’t make it” place across the street)when the phone rang and it was my #1 CSI Spy, with a report; “Dude, the Chef put lemon and tarragon in the lobster salad. Not COOL! This is New England. People will rebel!”
I asked Agent 86 to chill for a day, and when I return I will speak with the Chef. Sounds like a problem, but just hold off….
Upon return, I addressed the Chef; “Dude, Tarragon and lemon IN LOBSTER SALAD!!?” “Boss man” said he, “Have you tried it yet”? Chef then threw together a 2oz sample on a piece of buttered toast round and thrust it at me with confidence.
I am writing about this now, because the 4th person in that many weeks has said “Best Ever!” on the way out the door. I didn’t say that. I might think it…not quite sure…have had ALOT of Lobster Rolls through the years…BUT…if I were going to choose right now… I’m just sayin’
The key? Just a little bit of lemon, just a tiny hint of tarragon, and lobster-butter brushed on the buttery brioche roll….
**Not sure how I feel about this whole restaurant week thing! Does it bring more customers through the door than it does influence regular customers to opt for the discount?
What do you think?
The lobster role is a creative treat, an excellent take on a classic. Chef Enx never ceases to innovate, his passion is his devotion. It is always exciting to go into Moonstones when the wait staff is excited to tell you what he was up to creating for a special or new menu item that day. In some ways, Moonstones, is about always experiencing a different and fresh perspective, Chef EnxÂ’s creations are an integral part.
It is funny, I have to come up with a new name for the “wait staff” at Moonstones, when I just wrote it, it felt funny, like I was mischaracterizing the people at Moonstones by referring to them as “wait-staff”. The way I am greeted and treated so special, I think we are going to rename the entire crew at Moonstones, ambassadors. Like getting off of the plane in an exotic land and feeling like you are royalty. Maybe that is what is so special about the lobster roll at Moonstones, it isn’t about creating the food it is about creating a special experience for all those who enter.
