Food
The focus of the festival is, of course, fresh hot Maine lobster! Enjoy your lobster dinner, that is served with award-winning Cabot butter, under the Main Eating Tent while enjoying a view of Penobscot Bay. What could be better on a warm August day?
During the 2011 Lobster Festival, about 20,000 pounds of luscious lobster was prepared in our brand new cooker on the shore (that's a show in itself!). In addition to lobster, you can choose from steamed and fried clams, fried Maine shrimp, shrimp cocktail, steamed mussels in wine and vegetable sauce, and many varieties of traditional summer fair food, all prepared in the traditional Maine way. The Shore Dinner was again available this year - lobster, fried clams were included.
