Spring, Daniel Rose's brilliantly successful tiny resto in the 9th, has invented yet another truc for the Saturdays in the Summer of 2009; North American lobster sandwiches (to me a New Englander, called rolls) with French fries cooked in goose fat, followed by watermelon (or raspberries if you're a revisionist) and accompanied by "cheap" wine and/or beer.
We had a great time as always and it's just the thing for a hot summer day, especially the 4th of July.
For those interested, the deal is to reserve your lobster rolls (priced according to the market but 37 E top) via the net (you cannot reserve a table) and while they're open from 12-8, I'd urge you to go at noon when the line doesn't stretch into the street.
Our bill for three with two bottles of St Romain but no coffee (the machine is broken) was 147 E but (disclosure) he comp'd us to the fries and gave us a really reasonably priced lobster.
