Lobster roll, New England, United States

A classic Maine lobster roll served up on a dock by the Five Islands Lobster Co.

New Englanders hold their humble lobster roll dear -- a summertime coastal treat piled with big chunks of steamed lobster meat that's usually mixed with lemon juice, mayonnaise and herbs and tucked into a roll resembling a hot dog bun.

You can find them at seafood restaurants across the United States. But a classic lobster shack on the stretch of coastline from Maine to Connecticut will make for a scenic backdrop that's hard to beat.
