The lobster roll was not quite what you would get in Maine, the home of great lobster rolls
Rolls Takeaway: Killian Durkin and Jess D’Arcy have teamed up with Martin McLoughlin of Nicky’s Plaice in Howth is about to land on the menu too. D’Arcy and Durkin, who between them have worked in Etto, Chapter One and Thornton’s, are the people behind Mamó in Howth and Margadh RHA in Ely Place. Martin is the son of Nicky McLoughlin, who recently turned 90 and owns the renowned fishmongers at the end of Howth Pier.
Much of the lobster is landed by Steven Farren, and the fish comes from local boats. There are plenty of places to sit to enjoy your rolls – on the pier or in the park nearby – although the seagulls swoop here with determination. You need to be on your guard for thievery.Floritz review: A glitzy but perplexing new restaurant with an overwhelming menuRolls Takeaway: lobster roll
. A large amount of celery and cucumber tossed in mayo was piled into the roll before it was topped with pieces of lobster. I think we may have been unlucky in what we got,, it looked like others fared considerably better. There were no chunks of lobster from the claw or tail piled into our roll, just leg meat and not enough of it. The celery salad was nice, but there was too much of it.
The bánh mì was good. Slices of monkfish marinated in a Vietnamese-inspired dressing of lime leaf, galangal and ginger ran the length of a crusty sourdough baguette. They were topped with shredded carrot, radish, long slices of cucumber, peanuts and chopped coriander.I’d be happy to give the lobster roll another chance as I think I was unlucky, and would definitely be back for the bánh mì.
