Lobster Roll in Delray
A few months ago I read that a restaurant would be opening sometime in June on Atlantic Ave. in Delray and would be featuring New England style lobster rolls. Has this come about, and if so, the name of the place and comments from anyone who may have been there.
Thanks in advance for any information.
That would be Linda Bean's "Perfect Maine Lobster Roll". It's taking a long time, but work IS progressing. I've seen workers inside the store, building what looks to be a counter, in the past week or so. So I'm reasonably confident this WILL happen. Unlike, say, the old "Shore" on A1A and Atlantic which has been in a state of demolition for about a year now.
More details in this earlier post:
re: CFByrne
Thanks to both of you for your replies --- now I won't make an unnecessary ride up from Fort Lauderdale.
re: cucuzza
Cucuzza...try it, but if you want to save some gas and have the best lobster role right in Ft. Lauderdale, head over to Coconuts and enjoy theirs. Almost all lobster, big chunkc and not shredded, served on a butter soft roll. And right on the marina. THE BEST!
re: CFByrne
A little birdy tells me this is opening any moment now. Possibly even already, yesterday. I am out of town so cannot verify.
re: SaminSFL
It has not opened yet. After a lot of heavy-duty constuction (concrete, iron beams, etc) they are now working on the final details (nice New England style beadboard cabinets, paint, etc).
This is definitely NOT one of those stalled "someone ran out of money" projects.
If I had to guess, and disclaimer, I am merely an amatuer observer, I would say they could be open on October 1.
re: CFByrne
Coincidentally... the NY Times has a large article on Linda Bean and her Lobster plans today.
The lead:
"EYEING a vivid heap of buoys on her wharf here, Linda L. Bean hatched another idea for her burgeoning lobster empire. The buoys would be ideal decorations for Ms. Bean's next lobster-roll stand, in Delray Beach, Fla..."
Or maybe not a coincidence. Perhaps the author is a CH follower!
(Her bio indicates she's based in Boston but from Miami),
re: BAFU
I just got back from Linda Bean's "Perfect Maine Lobster Roll". Let me start off by saying, the lobster was cooked perfectly, there was just the right amount of dill mayo dressing, and the potato roll was hot and toasted perfectly.. The price I could do with out 15.50 of a 1/4 lb lobster roll that was mostly claw meat, is not something I am going to be eating too often. There is a 1/4 lb claw meat meal for 9.50 that looks tempting, as did the clams.
Everything was fresh, it is their second day open, didnt seem to busy. The market price today for the lobsters were 15.99 lb.
Bottom line, Ill be back to try other things on the menu.
re: SaminSFL
I just back from lunch there about 2 hours ago My 2 cents: yes the lobster was cooked perfectly. Yes, the decor/ambiance is nice (although I never judge any place solely based on who decorated the interior). Yes the staff are eager to help and offer suggestions. Yes, they do have beer on tap/wine/soft drinks (and real ginger beer, a big + for me). And yes, they are newly open a/o yesterday, according to the counterman.
But (and here begins the whine/bitch/moan/complain section): my roll was just warm (not toasted), I asked for a white roll and got wheat instead. The mayo was way too tart and after I ate the sandwich, I felt ripped off. $16 for a hot dog roll with some lobster claw chunks (as Sam noted above), some way-too-vinegary potato chips and a few sad slices of bread & butter pickles? Throw in a ginger beer and I escaped out onto Atlantic Ave. almost $20 poorer. My God. I've had cheaper (and better) lobster rolls in Maine, NYC and the Hamptons (not that the Hamptons are by any means a barometer of lobster rolls- I had the best 1 ever in some place in Southampton years ago...yummm).
The rest of the menu seems decent enough- salads, panini, assorted entrees- but they better wake up and start making sure their signature "named" dish lives up to the billing. Dill mayo? Blech. Come on guys, you can do better. Chalk this one up to lunchtime blahs and 1st week jitters. The manager was right next to me interviewing waitresses. Sounds like he was having a thrilling day.
Oh yeah. Put in some ceiling fans. That is all.
re: SaminSFL
I think that's a pretty good lobster price, since I once paid $22.95 for a tiny chicken lobstah at Shell's (now gone) in Ocala. (*Sniff*) I miss New England food...
I walked in today around 5 p.m. since I work down the street from it, and I had full intentions on ordering to go. It was dead in there as I read the menu posted above the order counter.
Two women stood and just stared at me from behind the counter. I said hi and got no response. I decided not to order as I didn't think the sandwich would be good after my commute home. I walked up to the counter and asked for a take-home menu.
The girl just looked at me and wordlessly pointed to a stack of menus.
What I find funny is that they are advertising on Craigslist for experienced servers -- five years or more, if I remember the post. Wow, no one could even say hello or "here ya go" to me.
I'll probably go back, just to try it, but based on that frosty reception, I'd rather go hungry.
re: goddessdawn
I have lived in Florida for almost 20 years and find that if a restaurant hires super young people, that's what you get: blank stares. ARRGGGHH! But, if they hire "experienced" as in "older" servers, hooray!
re: goddessdawn
Funny thing is all the people being interviewed while I was there were all young, pretty and had NO experience. Of the 4 people he spoke to while I was eating my roll, only 1 had more than a year's worth of work in a restaurant. And she wanted twice what he was offering.
Oh well. Let's face it: doesn't take that much skill to make a lobster roll. Call me a pessimist but I don't think this place is going to make it through to March. I'd like to be proven wrong but....
After reading all the posts about Linda Bean, I had no intention of trying it anytime soon, but three of my co-workers wanted to go there today, so off we went. You can now add my name to the list of those that were not impressed. Two of us had the lobster panini (around $15) and one had the junior lobster roll (about $7) and one had a turkey sandwich. The panini had very little lobster in it, and when peeking inside it, there appeared to be more lettuce and tomato and lots of the mayonnaise based sauce. The lobster that was in it wasn't particularly noteworthy. My colleague who had the pannini felt the same way...nothing special. The lobster roll was more of a hit, although the pieces of lobster in that were not the choicest part of the lobster. The turkey sandwich was large but relatively average in appearance and taste. Despite the limited menu, the high prices for what you get, the place was jammed at lunchtime today, surprisingly, mostly an elderly crowd. So, now I've tried it and unless there are some revolutionary changes, won't be returning. There are far too many other places to spend my money on the avenue that are more worthy.
They're open but you've got to be kidding? $15.00 for a quarter pound of lobster (claw) meat on a roll. The stuff is not even fresh! It's packed in Maine and shipped in. If you don't know anything about the lobster market right now USA today recently had a story about wholesale Maine lobster being $2.25 per pound!!! And Linda Bean recently bought 3 wharves and buying stations in Maine to help develop a little monopoly of sorts! If I want a lobster roll I'll go down to Joseph's Market in Boca, get 2 POUNDS steamed while I shop for $18.00, pick up some fresh baked hot dog rolls at a bakery and have enough for a family of four!! The economy sucks!! Where does somebody get off charging $15.00 for a sandwich? I'll give them a year!! Get through a summer on Atlantic Avenue with minimal foot traffic and no big businesses around to generate a lunch crowd. I'm sure all of the unemployed and underemployed will be lining up to spend 1 night's dinner for a family of four on one sandwich! I own my own business so I understand profit and loss but, GREED KILLS!
I visited Linda Bean's Perfect Maine Lobster in Delray Beach last week.
They did a nice job on the furnishings and decorating for sure. I spend a lot of time in Maine and it's reminiscent of some of the nicer "lobster shacks" up there. This is a very nice addition to Atlantic Avenue in Delray. It looks to be quite busy at most times, and overall, my wife and I enjoyed it.
My wife had the crab roll. It was on a traditional Maine-style hot-dog split-top roll and absolutely packed with crab meat and very little filler/dressing. She thought it was excellent and so did I.
I ordered the shrimp roll, which was prepared the same as the crab roll except of course with Maine shrimp. If you've never had Maine shrimp, you really need to try them. They are probably the most flavorful shrimp I've ever had. They are very small but really delicious. I think both of these were under $10 each so I thought that was a good deal. It would be about the same in New England.
(Side note: these are very abundant and very cheap in Maine in the winter (when they run) and I think someone (Ms Bean?) should come up with some new name for them and make them a gourmet delicacy).
I loved loved loved the crunchy salt and pepper potato chips that come on the side.
We also ordered a bowl of Lobster Stew. I was a bit surprised to find this was prepared more like "non-New England" Lobster Bisque (with lots of cream and sherry and an orange tint) than the all white / no sherry Lobster Stew I often get in Maine. In any event, though, it was good and included a nice chunk of lobster.
My wife enjoyed a native Maine Root Beer and I had a nice Shipyard Ale, straight from Portland ME.
The service was fine, although I do think one of the great attributes of LL Bean is their absolute obsession with "branding" their service as the best anywhere. So from a company "related" to LL Bean, I would have liked to see/hear more "Welcome to Perfect Maine Lobster", "Is this your first time here?" Etc etc. Maybe a mission statement on the wall similar to LL Bean's as well. Something along those lines. One thing I love in a restaurant is when you walk in and you can tell the staff is having fun and actually enjoying their work. I didn't really see this here.
I'd just returned from almost a month in Maine so I didn't try the lobster roll. However I'd like to make a comment on previous posts regarding the lobster roll.
I think comparing the price of on-the-dock wholesale lobsters in Maine to retail lobster meat-only in a restaurant 1500 miles away is not particularly fair… If you want to talk wholesale costs versus restaurant menu prices you can have all kinds of fun…
Did you know you can buy an entire cow butchered (about 500 pounds of meat) for about $1500 - or $3 / pound. And yet some restaurants on Atlantic Ave have the nerve to sell steak for what amounts to $50 a pound! Outrageous! Or that you can get farm-raised salmon for $5 / pound. And yet plenty of sushi restaurants will gladly charge what amounts to about $100 / pound for an ounce of salmon and some white rice rolled up. Or that I bet a Chicken Parm sandwich at Vic and Angelo's next door goes for about $10 and the food cost is probably a buck. What nerve! So let's dismiss that if we can.
Secondly, I'm not concerned that the lobster is cooked in Maine and then flown down. I'd defy anyone to do a side-by-side blind taste test and be able to distinguish "fresh" lobster (cooked today) from that cooked a day or two in the past. In Maine I often buy larger lobsters intentionally so I have leftovers and I don't think there's any difference at all after a day or two in the frig.
Your mileage may vary, but that's my two cents.
Overall, I'd recommend Linda Bean's Perfect Maine Lobster in Delray Beach - and encourage any readers to try it for themselves.
re: CFByrne
While I respect your right to an opinion, I must disagree with it. My objection on a cost basis is in reference to a sandwich. Your comparison to a steak dinner is something like apples to oranges. Prices for top quality beef have not dropped (to my knowledge) but demand for lobster is down considerably. Linda Bean also has the ability to continue to squeeze the cost even lower since she owns her own lobster wharves and buying stations. Nobody on Atlantic Avenue own their own ranch or salmon stocked lake and I don't think David Manero owns a chicken farm.
I have not bothered trying the crab or the shrimp roll and honestly doubt that I would be pleased with them either but to each his own. The lobster rolls are not like the best you would get in Maine, Massachusetts or even Connecticut. I think that my initial post should have been more explanatory so that people could understand that I wasn't being cheap but that if I was going to pay $15.00 for a sandwich, it had better be very close to what I'm used to (and it's not).
I did not complain because the lobster is flown in. I complained because it is frozen. I don't care if it's flash frozen, it's still frozen. I would gladly take you up on your challenge to be able to discern fresh lobster from previously frozen. You can't compare fresh seafood to previously frozen. Go get some shrimp with the heads on fresh off the boat and then go get some that are previously frozen. Cook them with very little seasoning and tell me you can't tell the difference!! I know I can.
Linda Bean's is a nice addition in appearance and concept but I don't think it will last. I recommend that you buy a fresh lobster, have it steamed, take the meat out and chill it. Get some fresh hot dog buns at a local bakery and cut them open, lightly butter them and toast them on a flat surface. Take your cold lobster, mix 1 teaspoon of mayo per 4 ounces of lobster and put it on your toasted, buttered bun. That's a lobster roll! No extra flavors like this Bean place. Just like you would get at Red's Eats in Wiscasset for $14.00 that has almost a whole lobster on there. That includes the tail! Not just claw meat like Bean's! If you are from New England and expect quality product and service . . . I would suggest that you stay away from this place!
Let me start out by saying I am a born and raised New Englander. I have nothing good to say about Linda Bean's, expect that if you have never been to New England and never plan to go, you should check it out.
I too, like many, was excited to see this addition to the Ave and to have a taste of home so close by. Lobster bisque - absolutely awful, only upside was sizable lobster chunks. Go to Whale's Rib in Deerfield Beach. Lobster Roll - mediocore, nothing to it, no seasoning and certainly not indicative of a Lobster Roll you would find in Maine.
Disappointed and saddened that Linda Bean's is representing New England/Maine in such poor style.
re: DelrayFoodFan
I'm surprised it's still there...she must have a lot of $$$ to blow on this awful place.

re: alcaplan
THANK YOU, THANK YOU, THANK YOU!! Nice to hear someone that has taste buds and common sense! I posted back in December that for $15.00 it should at least match the stuff you can get in Maine for the same price! Linda Bean has apparently taken any money left to her by the LL Bean fortune and chosen to get into something that she doesn't know enough about. She has bought numerous docks and weigh stations in Maine to attempt to corner the market and then has the audacity to serve CRAP! The lobster CLAW meat is flash frozen in Maine and sent down here to sell to unsuspecting diners and ignorant fools that think they know good food. Check out B&G in Boston (it's not your traditional but it's a tasty twist) and when in Maine Red's Eats will pack ALL the meat from at least a one pound lobstah including the tail! She's sending out coupons in mailers now!!! For anyone who has the lack of common sense and defends this garbage as quality food . . . I'll see you there for the goodbye party at the end of the summer if she makes it that long!
re: mnjdelray
So what should we do if we're not going to be in Boston or Maine anytime in the forseeable future. What's good in Boston or Maine doesn't help us here.
I'll avoid the place, though. Atlantic has plenty of good choices alone, let alone the rest of the area.

re: Blind Mind
I was told previously by someone that worked there. Did some checking and it turns out they no longer work there. Disgruntled ex-employee maybe? I spoke to someone else and they say it is shipped in FRESH 3 times a week. If that's the case then I apologize for any misinformation. I still believe that the best way to do it is to steam on premise daily and my biggest point of disapproval is the fact that they use only claw meat in their lobster rolls which is supposed to be their trademark product!!
re: Fibber McGee
mnjdelray - I figured that was misinformation. Also, fyi the amount of meat in a 1-lb lobstah only amounts to about a 1/4lb at the very most, assuming it's an old shell. A 1-lb lobstah is what we New Englander's refer to as "chicken lobstah" and they tend to be sweeter than larger lobstahs.
Fibber - don't write Linda Bean's off just yet... I am from Boston and summer in Gloucester and Rockport every year where we have a clam & lobster bake. I know my lobster rolls and have eaten thousands of them. I was in Delray for a wedding last weekend and was driving down Atlantic when I saw Linda Bean's on Atlantic. We were starving so we stopped to grab a lobster roll. It was expensive, yes, but absolutely phenomenal and the best lobster roll I have tasted outside of New England.
First off, for those of you complaining about claw meat, there may be no help for you. Claw meat is the best meat on the lobster!! It is the sweetest and most tender and flavorful. Linda Bean's lobster roll was LOADED with claw meat and I couldn't have been happier. Second, they only use a little mayo so you get the full flavor of the lobster along with a little of their dry seasoning which I believe contained celery flake and a little dill. Third, whoever dissed the bun, you have no idea what you're talking about. They use authentic New England hot dog rolls that stand up on their own because they have a flat bottom. Those are so hard to find down here that there is even a thread on this Florida board about where to find them. The bun was toasted on the flat top with a little butter which adds another flavor element to the lobster roll. A lobster roll is not supposed to be hot or warm. The bun should be toasted, thats it. It was so good that when we saw a parking spot out in front of Linda Bean's the following day, we just had to go grab a lobster roll for the road. It wasn't the first lobster roll I've eaten behind the wheel and I'm sure it won't be the last. I just hope they open one of these up in Miami (which I believe there is a rumor that they could be looking to do just that).
I do believe the life-support machine has been unplugged...
Unless they chose Friday night to turn off the lights and rearrange the floor plan.

Today I have my podcast interview with Andy, who's the chairman of the local surf club here in J Bay. He's been surfing here for many a year and really knows his stuff.
There was talk of breaks and swells, of surf shops and surfing competitions. Once I'm back in Ireland it'll be edited and will appear with all the other Hostelworld.com podcasts.
After that, Tracey from Island Vibe took me up to the main shopping mall here to visit a very special Quiksilver shop. And why is it special? Because inside the shop there's a skate park area which anyone can come use for free whenever the shop is open. We were there pretty early but one guy was already on the go as you can see here.
For lunch today I tried some of the lovely local calamari. Tracey came with me and it was great to have a nice chat with her over lunch about everything from backpacking to religion.
Once again here in Jeffreys Bay I've met some really amazing people, some of whom I spent time with this afternoon at the waterfall.

'Tis the Season to Be Spam-AwareWritten by Malcolm James on November 28, 2012
Black Friday – the official beginning of the holiday shopping season – has passed, and that means there's a feeding frenzy of money-hungry retailers who would step over their own grandmothers to pilfer your pockets. Unfortunately, shoppers are no better as they salivate over the chance to save fifty bucks on an HDTV. An anthropologist's dream, these shoppers revert to a pack mentality that leaves us wondering if the act of coming down from the trees 80,000 years ago was nothing more than a symbolic gesture. We've already seen signs of the madness throughout the US, but it's safe to say that many parts of the world will be prime targets over the next several weeks for a summary divorce between you and your money.
Unfortunately, while retailers crawl over each other in an attempt to empty the contents of your left pockets, spammers are silently lining up to take what's left from your right pockets. It's long been known that spam is a seasonal business – those wily scam artists target events and fragile psychologies, seemingly better than anyone – and no season is bigger in the Western world than Christmas, thanks to money-driven organizations that rely on a small, six week window to make or break their bottom lines. That makes this time of the year incredibly dangerous, not just for our credit card bills, but for the ever-increasing risks of identity theft, email scams, and malicious software designed to silently soak up every piece of information that the enterprising spammer needs to have a merry Christmas indeed.
Here are a few considerations you should make, this and every holiday season, to protect yourself from a visit from the spam elf:
Christmas is stressful. There's plenty of research to suggest that Christmas is not only incredibly stressful, in fact it's downright deadly. Massive stresses on the wallet are exacerbated by the pressures to deal with family. To make matters worse, in this part of the world, the icy blasts of arctic air shoot through you like a million tiny icicles. The days become very short, with most people waking in darkness, and dealing with it again when they arrive home for supper. The phenomenon known as seasonal affective disorder is so pervasive in modern society that it's generated its own business in light therapy devices. The holiday season is stressful, plain and simple, and when people become stressed out, they become fatigued, and they don't think so clearly. It's a prime opportunity for spammers to slip one past you as you sift through the unending glut of email that bombards inboxes this time of year.
Smarter spammers
Spammers aren't nearly as dumb as they appear to be. We've been seeing more and better phishing attempts, and it appears that the phishers are very successful, pulling down a cool $687 million in the first half of this year. In fact, the spam business as a whole is a $20 billion business, and as long as it's making that kind of coin, we can expect spam purveyors to do everything it takes to keep their solid gold pools in working condition. That makes the minefield even more treacherous, because spammers will do whatever it takes to prey on innocent users. People are far more vulnerable when they're tired and stressed, and there's no stress like holiday stress.
Malware under the Christmas tree
2012 has seen an interesting and disturbing shift in the state of spam. While overall numbers of email spam continue to decline, the amount of dangerous spam is on the rise. Some criminals have even made a business out of equipping other wannabe criminals, with 2012 seeing the release of Blackhole 2.0. Spam emails are laden with malicious links and images (an attempt at getting around spam filters), and a single click could be devastating. Kaspersky Labs are reporting that, while spam levels continue to dip, spam messages with malicious attachments are on an alarming rise.
Making it personal
Spam is getting more personal, and there's a simple explanation. The mass-blast method of sending ridiculous messages from Nigerian princes and widowed old ladies has some appeal, because, incredulously, it works with a certain portion of the masses. But cyber criminals seem to be finding more traction with personal attacks, or at least more well-crafted ones.
Be wary
Be wary this holiday season. Let your users know that their stress can add to the danger. And here's hoping you don't mortgage your house in an attempt to line your Christmas tree with gifts, or worse, the spammers'.

Spell scary, but the article is actually right! Dangerous spam is everywhere! What makes things even worse is the fact that it may not be that long before they gain their entrance to mobile strategies, such as mobile e-mailing or banking. In fact, this has already been proven before. Remember the more than 40 apps that were actually malware? That's actually a huge number, which could mean thousands of potentially infected mobile phones. And as companies take advantage of BYOD, the phones become more vulnerable since they contain more confidential corporate data.
If retailers announced discounts on their sites, not only via email, this will be a huge blow against spammers. Now, even if we know not to fall for links in emails but go straight to the site, this is useless because some really hot discount is nowhere to be seen there and can be found only by following a link. This is the trap!
Yes, indeed! In fact, I've been receiving almost all types of spam since August. That early! But maybe spammers are working double time since it's the holiday season. But I would also like to remind everyone here that we should also not be spammers. I know that we love to greet our friends or perhaps sell some of our goodies (if you're into business or something), but please learn to respect other people's space. I should say this because a good friend of mine just decided to e-mail me about "fun Christmas gift ideas" more than 5 times the past 2 weeks.
Honestly, every day should be a time to be aware of spam, as a lot of them are beginning to sound like regular e-mails. One time, I received a lengthy e-mail about a supposed job offer in Los Angeles, a city I've been secretly dreaming to live in. The content was fantastic, the salary was awesome, and the benefits are to die for. However, I decided not to answer back when, at the end of the e-mail, it requested me to input my personal information in a website that was so suspicious looking. I really felt frustrated. In fact, I still do.
What makes spam more difficult to deal with is the fact they're sounding very close to legitimate mails. I once received a supposed Christmas card from a long-distant relative. To view it, I needed to click on the link. As expected in any spam, it eventually led to a pharmacy website selling drugs I have never heard of in my entire life. I still don't know if there are other consequences to my action (like their system has recorded my e-mail address or whatever). I may find out in the next few days. But again, it was truly a foolish decision.
All great comments, folks. Just remember to beef up your spam security and get your Christmas shopping done before the 25th.

Lent and the Strangeness of Letting Go
Tuesday Mar 10 2009
I've been looking for a way to be free all my life. My entire search has, unfortunately, been focused on the practical aspect of 'holding on' to whatever I thought would give me freedom: a belief in some system or way of thinking, money, possessions, favorite books that contained ideas that were 'liberating', any activity that loosened up my body and mind, people I loved. But now almost nothing is certain in my life, and a deep desire to let go of my attachments to everything and everyone propels me forward.[Read More]

It's been about a month since these playoffs started. Anyone disappointed? Yes, fans that watched their teams fall can't be happy, but the hockey's been great gang. No way around it. The next month will be just as good if not better!
In the wild West the Los Angeles Kings will bestow their royalty on the Phoenix Coyotes in Scottsdale this very evening. Truthfully, for hockey fans, this matchup couldn't get much better. Yes the Coyotes aren't the sexiest hockey team out there; many of you would prefer the Chicago Blackhawks against LA, or even the Detroit Red Wings. Before you get caught in brand identity and tradition, remember: the Coyotes are a great team. You can't be bad and beat the likes of Chicago and Nashville. It just isn't possible. You don't advance this far into the postseason not having the ability to win big games.
Plain and simple.
The Coyotes and Kings series will be an instant classic, a true goaltending duel. Jonathan Quick and Mike Smith finished in the top five in shutouts this year. Quick had 10; Smith had 8. In the playoffs so far, Smith has 2 shutouts, and Quick has 1.
It is easy to pick LA in this one. After the beat down they put on the Canucks and the Blues, they look positively unstoppable. The Coyotes however are just as impressive. They neutralized a well-stocked Chicago team and overpowered the Predators with their balanced attack.
Yes, they don't have the marquee worthy names of Anze Kopitar, Jonathan Quick, Drew Doughty, Dustin Brown, Jeff Carter, Mike Richards, etc. If you look at the production though, Shane Doan and Ray Whitney are just as dangerous with the puck on their tape as any of those guys. And at this point, if you're not convinced that Mike Smith is the real deal, you're a lost cause.
I'll be totally shocked if this one is decided in less than six games. These teams are evenly matched; name recognition means nothing on the ice. The difference at this point in the playoffs is character and experience. The Kings have both; they are younger, and a belief that they can win. The Coyotes are full of experience and have an entire fan base - and a front office, finally - behind them. Nobody does a whiteout like the Coyotes, and at this point, other franchises should stop trying.
Where's the edge? In this one, the goaltending and defense are even. The difference will be each team's scoring depth. You want to know why the Kings came "out of nowhere" with this run they're on? Look no further than the Jeff Carter deal at the trade deadline. Jack Johnson's a great young player who has a great future ahead of him. Nothing against him, but Carter provides yet another weapon that can overpower the defense and score a clutch goal in crunch time for LA.
Look for Quick and Smith to steal a game apiece before this one is over. This series will be very close: low scoring, plenty of overtime, back and forth the whole way. In the end, the Kings won't be denied. Kings in 7.

Both locations worth seeing. Wish we had more time in Cortona.
Debbie Eichman
This day trip is beautiful. Great tour guide. Nice bus and great history. Cortona was a nice surprise. Beautiful.
Great trip to two marvelous towns. Each had its own character and our guide was helpful in pointing out highlights.
Enjoyed this tour as you get to see Tuscany's beauty. Assisi was a very quaint town but know in advance, there is much uphill walking on this trip. Tour leader and tour guide both excellent. Cortona was unique and again, a lot of uphill walking is involved. Worth the day to see these while in Italy.
I enjoyed the trip, but wished I had been given a little more time in each city. There was only a guided tour in Assisi, and even that was a little short. Overall, it was worth going, but I wasn't wowed.
I had signed up for this trip because I wanted to go to Cortona and had to do Assisi in order to get there. I had no idea that the majority of the day would be in Assisi, and only 1 hr dedicated to Cortona. So that was a bit of a disappointment to me. The timeline was not spelled out in the information onlin. Also, it was much farther driving than I thought, I guess I should have investigated that part more carefully. Unfortunately it poured rain while in Cortona so we had literally about 10 min there. So for me, while Assisi was interesting, the trip did not meet my expectations because Cortona was a total bust. And I thought the guide we had was only mediocre.
Informative trip. Assisi and Cortona are not easy to reach on our own so we are very appreciative of the bus with an interesting driver. Cortona was very surprising with a medieval market place while we were there!

The Red Room next door to Normal's book and music store is a small venue that features experimental, improv and jazz performances along with anything else out of the extraordinary.
The folks over at the Red Room are a pretty heady bunch, so much so that the avant garde music collective has its own philosophers' union devoted to discussion of theoretical import in their explorations of the outer reaches of consciousness. Tonight, they go way past what most philosophers would consider the outer reaches, with Graham Harman, who is a charter member of the Speculative Realism movement. Harman is going to be asking "What philosophy can learn from H.P. Lovecraft." In case you've forgotten, Lovecraft (pictured) is the author of such horrifying stories as the "Call of Cthulhu," which is also being adapted by Baltimore's own Chris LaMartina, into Call Girl of Cthulhu in the near future. So we could come to a real meeting of minds here. Or mind control by a prehistoric sea creature, you know. (Baynard Woods)
