Dear Lobster Lovers,

It’s August already, and hard to believe that summer is quickly heading into the past tense. Although we may not have endured the end of the season’s swelter, we are approaching my favorite time, which is when I get to harvest my garden. So far we’ve had some excellent tangerines, stripeys, plum, vine and cherry tomatoes that we’ve been serving as a side dish, as well as hot peppers that have helped heat up our scallop ceviche at the raw bar.

I want to thank all of you who have visited the Ed’s Lobster Bar kiosk outside the World Financial Center and helped to make our summer stand a great success. For those of you who haven’t had a stroll (or lunch break) down there yet, we’ll be out there through the end of October, and I’ll also be doing a lobster roll demonstration this coming Thursday, August 5th, at 12pm at the World Financial Center Greenmarket on Liberty Street and South End Avenue — not far from the kiosk, which is on the marina just outside the Winter Garden.

Other than that, it’s been a great month at the restaurant, and we’re looking forward to seeing you all soon. And though we’d rather see you in person, up on a bar stool, in the meantime you’re always welcome to join us digitally on your preferred social media platform.

All the best,

Ed McFarland
