Pearl Oyster Bar does not serve a "traditional" New England-style lobster roll (too much mayo), but it does offer a lobster sandwich that is beloved by New Yorkers. It's basically about a quarter pound of chopped lobster meat that's mixed with mayo, lemon juice, celery, salt, and pepper. The salad is placed in a toasted hot dog bun, and it's served with a lightly dressed salad and shoestring fries. New Yorkers can't get enough of Pearl's lobster rolls. There are now clones of this restaurant and this dish scattered across the city, but the original is still worth seeking out. [Pearl Oyster Bar]
