SubscribeOld Port Lobster Shack Redwood City
851 Veterans Boulevard Redwood City, CA 94063-1712 (650) 366-2400
I’ve been enduring a long term craving for a lobster roll and it’s been killing me! When my much better half needed to run an errand in San Jose I gladly offered to drive, IF we stopped by the Old Port Lobster Shack hehehehehe. He was suckered into my evil plans before he realized it!
To my delight, the Lobster Shack also offers a couple of mac and cheese options:
BAKED Macaroni and 4 Cheese with LOBSTAH………………..18.75
BAKED Macaroni and 4 Cheese with BBQ Pulled Pork…………9.75
Seeing that I just forked over $35 for 2 lobster rolls (totally worth it), I decided to go with the Pulled Pork mac and cheese. It was enormous!
that's a lotta mac and cheese
I was very shocked by the portion size and the generous helping of pulled pork! I was pretty excited when I saw this coming towards our table.
When I dug in, I wasn’t so happy. The macaroni was soggy. The sauce didn’t have much flavor. The pulled pork is a little dry and I can faintly smell and taste the gas from the ovens (I know most people say that I’m crazy to think I can actually smell the gas and it’s all in my head – but I really think I can!). This dish was a disappointment.
Lesson learned: stick to lobster from the Lobster Shack, dummy!
~ oh cheese, my elusive love ~
oh dear, what a disappointment! I used to love the lobstah rolls from the shack in North Beach. I know what you mean about tasting the gas… We got a fancy gas grill and I’m bummed that I can taste propane fumes!
@foodhoe – The lobstah rolls were great. I’ll stick to those from now on. They are definitely worth the drive. I’m glad you agree with the gas/ taste/ smell thing – my BF thinks I’m nuts!
