Exploring the Lobster World of Portland, Maine 🦞
When I visited Portland, Maine, I realized how thriving its lobster industry is! 🦞 As a key local industry, Portland has numerous lobster fishing and processing businesses. Guess what? Most of the delicious lobsters served in Boston restaurants come from here; even the majority of lobsters imported to China from the U.S. are sourced from Portland! 🌊 At the port in Portland, fishing boats and stacked lobster cages are everywhere. Workers are busy loading and unloading frozen fish heads, which are essential bait for catching lobsters. 🐟 The air carries a faint scent of seawater, mixed with the bustling atmosphere unique to a fishing harbor. Right by the dock, there's a lively lobster market where lively lobsters wave their large claws in tanks. 🦀 You can pick the freshest ones to take home or head directly to a nearby restaurant to enjoy a delicious lobster meal! 🍽️ Simply steamed and dipped in butter, the sweet, savory flavor is truly unforgettable~✨ The people here depend on the ocean for their livelihood and welcome every visitor with warmth. ❤️ If you love seafood, Portland's lobsters are an absolute must-try! #BigLobster #MaineLobster #PortlandLobster #SeafoodParadise #LobsterJourney #DeliciousDiscovery #OceanGifts
