Bronx & lobster
Bronx's lobster runs through greater New York — from Montauk, a fishing village since the 1880s whose catch once rode the railroad to the Fulton Fish Market. Long Island Sound's lobster collapsed around 2000 but is slowly returning to these waters.
🦞 Lobster lore
The lobster roll as we know it, chilled meat, mayo, split-top bun, is usually traced to Perry's in Milford, Connecticut, in the 1920s.
