"Curious about North Shore roast beef sandwiches, I made my way to Ned's New England Deck in Fairfax and found their version great: the roast beef has the thin slicing of an Arby’s sandwich but with better quality and a delicious sauciness. This was also my first encounter with “fluffy” lobster bisque—its butter-drenched appearance surprised me a little, but it was definitely rich and nuanced in flavor. They make a mean lobster roll too; I appreciated that they offer the buttery Connecticut-style, but given how much butter was in my soup, the Maine-style, lightly mayo-dressed version worked just fine for me." - Tierney Plumb
