Lobster Scare

I. Love. The. East. Coast.
Although I'm months behind on posting about my East Coast trip; being late is better than never! I know that many people hate the East Coast, and think the weather is too extreme to even be treated as "manageable," but I love the weather. I love the chilliness ... it gives a sense of adventure; as well as a desire to eat. (:
We started out in Boston. Boston is known for the fresh seafood markets and items. So, knowing that, I definitely had to try their clam chowder and lobster! We rushed to the famous and well known Atlantic Fish Company ... and let's just say, I was not dissapointed.

After the waitress took our orders, we were greeted by the aroma of their fresh-baked bread. And let me tell you, after years of loving carbohydrates, this bread was ultimately one of the best.

Then came our clam chowder ...


Oh lobster ...
The food was amazing. However, little did I know that I'm slightly allergic to lobster! My mouth started to swell and become itchy. But, because I love food and was overly excited for the brownie sundae with peppermint ice cream; I postponed any worried thoughts about my allergic reaction.

All in all, the mild allergic reaction was ultimately worth the risk for this seafood feast.
