The Downtown Lunch Guide

"Unless you fix busted umbrellas for a living (or are really into kites), working in a neighborhood that’s built directly on the harbor really sucks from November through March. But being that close to a windswept sea has one major advantage: really fresh seafood. James Hook is a lobster wholesaler with a small counter that serves up lobster rolls, crab cakes, and chowder. Like all lobster-based products, it’s a little pricey, but since you’ll be ordering right next to a bunch of lobster tanks, you at least don’t need to worry about whether the shellfish in your $28 roll was in a freezer that morning." - dan secatore
