Oysters, Lobsters, Po Boys, Oh My

It seems since this summer there’s no shortage of clam shacks and shellfish joints opening up in New York City. We’ve been starting to make the rounds, and the list is growing.

Littleneck opened a popular clamshack this summer in Gowanus, and has just started serving brunch.

L&W Oyster Co. opened a few weeks ago, on 5th Avenue in Manhattan, “Just post-storm,” Eric Lemonides, an owner, told us. “When we conceived of this [concept] we were on the beach, kind of in a vacuum, but now it seems we’re part of a zeitgeist”.  A happy one for us.

Kittery will open in Carroll Gardens next Tuesday, and their lobster roll has been getting advance press. With a New Englander at the helm of this ship, we’re especially curious.
