Savoring Lobster in Maine, USA 🦞

When it comes to lobster, nothing beats steaming it to lock in its original flavor—and that’s exactly how we enjoyed it here in Maine! The lobster was so fresh, every bite was sweet and tender, making it a healthy yet indulgent treat. At just around $40 USD, it’s an absolute steal considering U.S. food prices—total value for money! We dined at West Street Café ☕️🍺🍾🍹, and the experience was pure joy and satisfaction. Besides the star lobster, we also tried their blueberry soda 🫐—a refreshing local twist that paired perfectly with the seafood. What surprised me most? Normally, I get a slight itchy skin reaction after eating shrimp or lobster, but not here! The waiter mentioned Maine’s clean, cold ocean water keeps the shellfish pure, so even those with mild sensitivities can enjoy them without worry. Bar Harbor, where we stayed, is a coastal gem that feels like a hug from the Atlantic Ocean 🌊. One of our fellow travelers even told us this was their 3rd trip—they come back to Maine every year! It’s easy to see why: this 5-star ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ destination is hands down one of the most beautiful spots in the U.S. East Coast. The views of the five nearby islands are breathtaking, making it a top vacation haven. Walking through the town’s streets feels like stepping into a real-life Disneyland—colorful houses, cozy shops, and a warm, welcoming vibe everywhere you go. Maine is a must-visit state in your lifetime—it even borders Canada 🇨🇦! Fun fact: Our tour guide on the eco-cruise shared that Canada actually has more lobsters, thanks to the region’s ocean currents. They also dropped a quirky lobster fact: Male lobsters usually have one large and one small claw, because they often fight with other males—if they lose a claw, it grows back over time! 😂👍 It’s little tidbits like this that make eating lobster in Maine feel not just like a meal, but a fun, memorable part of the local experience. #BostonSurroundings #BostonDayTrips #Maine #BostonWeekend #ReliableBostonEats
