America’s Best Restaurants Roadshow couldn’t resist checking out a new monster lobster roll that’s just been rolled out in midcoast Maine.
In their latest episode, team hosts Theo Williams, Danyel Detomo, Luis Rivera, and J. Russell stopped by the Taste of Maine Restaurant in Woolwich with one goal in mind: trying the eatery’s massive new Monster Lobster Roll.
The new monstrosity is a full 3 feet long, loaded with 2½ pounds of fresh Maine lobster meat, including tail, claw, and knuckle.
“It’s a seafood lover’s dream and comes with a $259.99 price tag” reports i95rocks.com.“
The original version is no small feat, stretching 22 inches long, and anyone who can finish one earns a spot in the restaurant’s “Clean Plate Club,’” says I95’s The Kid, aka Arlen Jameson.
But this summer, Taste of Maine decided to take things to another level.
The Route 1 landmark has been serving up fresh seafood since 1978 and is already famous for its giant inflatable lobster that sits on the roof and its legendary “World’s Largest Lobster Roll.”
Located at 161 Main Street in Woolwich, Taste of Maine is celebrating its 48th season.
“With summer adventures in full swing and the 4th of July weekend coming up, it just might be the perfect excuse to plan a coastal road trip, enjoy some fresh Maine seafood, and see if you can tackle a lobster roll longer than your arm,” Jameson teases.
Gotta Love that huge inflatable lobster !
