(EMAILWIRE.COM, January 08, 2010 ) BAR HARBOR, Maine - Don’t See Lobster on the Dish? It isn’t Bar Harbor. In this coastal village lobster is king. Delicate, sweet, and fresh from the docks of Frenchman’s Bay, the seafood is found everywhere food is served. Diners seated on grand porches enjoy choice lobster artfully arranged on English china, while whole lobsters on paper plates are devoured with gusto by patrons of the local bar and grill. Yet, the most popular way Bar Harbor lobsters are made is in a large kettle of water with corn on the cob, potatoes and often a few clams. Although the lobster lobster is actually steamed, the dish is known as the “lobster bake.” In Bar Harbor, during the summer season, visitors can find a lobster bake any time of day, indoors or outdoors, at every kind of food establishment. Some diners prefer to assist in preparing their own "bake." The Bar Harbor Lobster Bakes will accommodate them at their establishment. While you’re at it, grab a local microbrew to compliment your cuisine. Try an Island Ginger pale ale from the Atlantic Brewing Company to beat the heat of a summer’s day.
If upon leaving Bar Harbor, visitors aren't filled to the gill with the ocean treat, frozen lobster and other seafood can be purchased and packaged for the trip home from outlets like The Trenton Bridge Lobster Pound.
