Lobster rolls may get all the glory, but Observer critic Scott Reitz has a different crustacean in mind. Reitz proclaims that shrimp rolls are just more sensible: "The Gulf of Mexico has plenty of shrimp, and not only are the shipping costs lower, the shellfish are more affordable." He recommends you go try the top-notch version at Hotel Lumen's The Front Room, and "at $16 with a tower of house-fried potato chips, it's a touch cheaper than many of the lobster rolls served around town."
