Ducky,
You are too funny - Legal Sea Food in Folsom??? If I thought it was possible, I would have already called. You can order from them on line and have it shipped. If you are so inclined, there are a number of companies in Maine and Massachusetts that will ship lobster, steamers, mussels, cod, corn, potatoes and odd other things. They ship in a single container, or multiple, depending upon the number of people you are planning to feed. The container is a big aluminum can. You add fluid (water, beer or wine), put it on a charcoal weber grill, and in 30 minutes, put on your bib and eat. It is typically about $50.00 per person - and very good, especially if you can predict that you are in the mood for lobster and steamers at least 2 days in advance. Your other option, for lobster anyway, is to get them at Savemart, and cook them yourself at home. I am required to do lobster rolls whenever the Patriots play in the super bowl - which also requires shipping of the correct hot dog rolls (from New England). $6.00 worth of hot doge rolls costs $27.00 to ship - and Fed Ex in Massachusetts thinks people who ship hot dog rolls are crazy.
Another option is the Woodhouse Grill in SF. It is a hole in the wall that ships in eastern clams, lobster and a few other things. They hired a local bakery to make the hot dog rolls for them - but if you want east coast fried clams - this is the place to get them. Prices are very reasonable - you can see the menu on their website.
What shall I make for dinner????????????????/
Come on, Kerri. If anyone can figure out a way to make it possible for Legal to come here it would be you. :)Wouldn't it be great for Folsom to scoop Roseville on a restaurant for a change?
In the meantime, thanks for all the suggestions. I'll have to check out the Woodhouse Grill next time I'm in SF.
