Truro & lobster
Truro sits on (or just inland from) England's South-West coast, where crab and lobster have been potted for centuries — Newlyn was recorded as a harbour back in 1435, and day-boats still work traditional withy pots along the Cornwall and Devon shoreline.
🦞 Lobster lore
The lobster's rise from peasant food to luxury began with the railroads: dining cars served it to inland passengers who had no idea it was once considered junk.
