Road Food?

I really enjoy diner food when we take road trips. Unfortunately most of the diners along the New York State thruway  have disappeared given all the rest stops along the way. So we made it to Lee, MA last night without finding any tasty stops so decided to stop and see what this Main St. town had to offer.

Salmon Run Restaurant
Instead of fries or meatloaf we found Salmon Run Fish House. I had the tasty baby clams in white wine, garlic and butter sauce and a lobster salad. Lance had the fried whole belly clams which were the perfect blend of sweet and salty. My only complaint was that we were so hungry that we ate our warm bread instantly and I didn’t have any left to dip into the delicious clam sauce.

Frites

A quick day trip to NY for a meeting meant I only had time for one meal. I decided to finally stop at Pomme Frites. Just frites sauce on mine. They were quite tasty and perfect, I only wish I was hungrier. But I had a super-early meeting and my body never really woke up. I could barely eat half the cone!

On my next NY trip I’ll bring my appetite and get through the entire cone.

Johnny Rockets

At the mall today and we decided to stop at the Johnny Rockets in the food court for a quick lunch. I ordered the veggie cheeseburger with no mayo or mustard. My burger came–with mustard. So second burger was made to spec, but I wasn’t thrilled with the burger. They basically only warmed it on the grill, so there wasn’t that crisply crust on the outside. Maybe I should have just gotten my usual grilled cheese and tomato.

Yesterday’s lunch

veggie red curry

We often eat lunch at the Green Papaya. Yesterday it was veggies in Thai red curry. I was a bit disappointed that I only got one piece of eggplant–my favorite veggie of this medley. And yes, I always pick out the peppers!
