What's the deal with BYOB in new england?
Being from Michigan, we have no BYOb restaurants. I see BYOB mentioned in many NE restaurant posts. Is it in certain states? Can you bring a bottle of rum and order cokes to mix it in?

Best crab roll in New England?
What's wrong with the one at Bob's Clam Hut? I thought you couldn't go wrong with any of their seafood.
Best crab roll from Boston to NH and southern Maine?
It was very much like a cold lobster roll. Lumped crabmeat held together with a little mayonaise. Yummy. In some ways maybe tasted better than a lobster roll if that is possible.
Best crab roll from Boston to NH and southern Maine?
My last trip to New England 2 years ago I had great crab rolls at Yankee Lobster in Boston and Mariners Grill in Camden Maine. Not sure if soft or hard shell.

Will be in New England in mid July. Looking for the best crab roll.
Best crab roll from Boston to NH and southern Maine?

Best / Favorite 5 North Shore Clam Shacks?
You Hounds are amazing. Coming to New England mid July. Looks like I have some decisions to make. So many clams--so little time (one week).
Thanks for all of your time and expertise!
FRIED CLAM STRIPS, TRIP FROM NYC TO BOSTON?
Kattyeyes,
Thanks for the link and the picture---- it looks large and yummy.
Have you tried the hot lobster roll or the hot crab roll I see on their menu? If so , which is better?
Restaurants Camden Maine Area
Try Mariner's Grill on Main st. Wonderful food, reasonably priced. Try the rear deck overlooking the bay and waterfall. Wonderful, friendly owners.
Boston to Midcoast maine, any must stops?
As a visitor 2 summers ago I visited 2 places highly recommended on this Board. Bob's Clam Hut in Kittery (fried clams, seafood) and Red's Eats in Wiscassett--best lobster rolls on the planet!
Try them--they are both amazing and wonderful.
FRIED CLAM STRIPS, TRIP FROM NYC TO BOSTON?
You Chowhounds are amazing! Just got back from a week in Vegas and discovered all these great recommendations! I will get a map and start plotting my route and restaurants based on all this information. Thanks so much for your time and trouble.
Cheesecake Factory--What to order?
Fourunder, thanks for your help. I have also enjoyed the Grand Lux Cafe in Vegas.
Cheesecake Factory--What to order?
I know that the Cheesecake Factory is a chain and therefore repulsive to many on this board. But I love food and happen to love the Cheesecake Factory. We have none in Michigan but enjoy them in our travels to Chicago, Las Vegas and Ft Lauderdale.
Love most of their soups and salads, sandwiches and pastas. Especially like the chicken madiera and the wonderful mashed potatoes and gravy. Will be enjoying the Vegas location next week.
My dilemna is this: the menu is so big--there's so many choices and so little time.
What's your favorite?
FRIED CLAM STRIPS, TRIP FROM NYC TO BOSTON?
I appreciate the advice that I 95 is not the best route from NYC to Boston. Does everyone agree with that?
If I take 15-91-84-90 where will I find my great fried clam strips and lobster rolls along that route?
FRIED CLAM STRIPS, TRIP FROM NYC TO BOSTON?
Thanks to all for so many rec's! The trip is in mid July and additional rec's are always welcome. Especially if I take the advice that I should avoid I 95.
Cheap Vegas drink specials?
Will be in Vegas mid June. Last time I was there I enjoyed $1 frozen margaritas at, I believe, Casino Royale and Bills Gambling Hall. Where else can special drink prices be found?
Best / Favorite 5 North Shore Clam Shacks?
Searching Boston and North Shore for your 5 favorite clam shacks (and they need not literally be shacks). Especially love fried clam strips.
Best tartar sauce?
I love all seafood, especially fried clams and scallops. IMHO I think that often the tartar sauce can make or break the seafood. It can't be bottled, must be homemade. I especially enjoy a hint of dill. Where is the tastiest tartar sauce in Massachusetts?--it goes without saying, the seafood must also be good.

How do you get from Yankee Lobster to the park? Is it a long walk?
Old fashioned meatball grinder & coffee cabinet NYC to Boston?
Traveling from NYC To Boston. Looking to find the best old fashioned meatball grinders and coffee cabinets like I enjoyed as a kid visiting New England (sadly, almost 50 yrs ago). Not sure if memory serves me right, but I believe the grinders were served on hard crusted submarine rolls. Maybe both can be found at the same place?
Where's Your Favorite Place for Brunch?
Does anyone know how much the brunch is at Finz?
Bob's Clam Hut
If you don't like Bob's can you offer nearby alternatives in Maine and Massachusetts?
Bob's Clam Hut
Thanks to all for your local expertise and advice. Ate at the Clam Box two summers ago and loved their fried clam strips also--maybe it was Bob's tatar sauce that was so memorable.
Bob's Clam Hut
Had wonderful fried clam strips at Bob's Clam Hut in Kittery the summer before last. Visiting again this July. What else is great at Bob's and where else can I find great fried clam strips within a reasonable drive from Burlington, Ma?
