Helensburgh & lobster
Helensburgh's lobster and langoustine come from Scotland's cold Atlantic west coast and the Minch, where creel fishermen have hauled pots from small boats for generations — shellfishing has been a Highland and island mainstay for centuries.
🦞 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.
