Brief Summary:
- Rich mac and cheese
- Good portions of lobster and mac and cheese
- Complimentary bread
- Located within Quincy Market
- I don't eat much lobster, so I don't have a expectation
On the first visit, I have dedicated time to eat foods with lobster in it. One, we don't eat lobster on a regular or even on special occasions, so I thought it will be great to try it in a place that it is known for.
There was Quincy Market, where it was long building that stretched with different food stalls of foods Boston was known for. This also meant that there was no Indian food (there was one Chinese restaurant). In the center of this long building, there was a 2-story sitting area to take your food and eat there.
As we walked down the string of food restaurants, this one caught our eye. Comfort mac and cheese with different fillings? Yes, that sounded like a good meal to have after a long walk in town. For a flair of Boston, we chose the lobster mac and cheese.
When we ordered this, it came with a free slice of bread, which was really nice to have when scooping up the rest of the mac and cheese. The macaroni was cooked just right, nice and tender and not overcooked. I also loved how there was a generous amount of lobster in the mac and cheese, but it wasn't torn into little pieces -- that I did myself. It did looks fancy to see large lobster chunks in the bowl of mac and cheese, but in terms of eating it required a little cutting with the plastic spoon and fork combination.
In terms of flavor, the mac and cheese tasted like a mac and cheese. No seafood taste, which was a good thing for some of my family members, who do not like seafood, but it also didn't taste like it had a lobster flavor. However, this is not something I should say because I also haven't eaten many lobsters, so I don't know what the best lobster tastes like.
In all, the lobster in mac and cheese was my favorite food with the lobster. The lobster needs additional flavor, in which the mac and cheese did a great job.
