When you don't want to pay for a lobster roll

Lobster is up again, but I have had some very good seafood rolls recently in the 5.95 range. Today I had a Maine crab roll at Scales in Millbury, Mass. It was worth every penny. It was just crab with a little mayo on a grilled split top bun. A week or so ago I had the seafood roll at Ronnies on Rt 20 in Auburn Mass. Ronnies uses Maine crab, pan seared scallops and shrimp. Neither one adds that fake lobster product made from pollack.

Ronnie's used a very common side cut roll and didn't grill it. Here in Mass, the hot buttered product often seen in Maine is not common. The Ronnie's filling is all seafood with the ingredients listed on the menu board. They use "no fillers", but I did detect, I think, a little mayo. It is served as a special only. They did not have it last weekend, when I was last there, so I had to settle for a whole belly clam roll. I doubt that I'll get any sympathy from this group on that.

Nope--no sympathy from ME!
