Cousins Maine Lobster Hits the Road in South Texas
Cousins Maine Lobster, a brand synonymous with authentic Maine lobster rolls and made famous through its appearance on Shark Tank, is embarking on a weeklong road trip that promises to delight seafood lovers in South Texas. From June 17 to June 22, the iconic food truck will make several stops, offering culinary delights that echo the coastal traditions of New England.
The excitement begins in San Antonio, where the food truck will be stationed at various locations across the South Texas region. The journey will take them to popular cities including Corpus Christi, Brownsville, McAllen, Rockport, and Victoria. Each stop is carefully planned to create not just a meal, but an event that fosters community engagement and showcases the best of Maine's seafood offerings.
A Sampling of Seafood Sensations
Food enthusiasts can expect their taste buds to be tantalized with signature dishes that have made Cousins Maine Lobster a household name. The truck’s menu is headlined by the world-renowned Maine Lobster Roll, chilled and dressed with mayo, alongside the warmly received Connecticut Roll, lavishly buttered and filled with sweet lobster meat. Additionally, customers can indulge in lobster tacos, rich lobster grilled cheese sandwiches, hearty New England clam chowder, and decadent loaded lobster tots—a perfect fare for both casual diners and serious seafood aficionados.
For dessert, the truck will also provide whoopie pies and unique specialty items that continue to garner rave reviews from patrons. Each dish is crafted to deliver the authentic flavors of Maine, complemented by a sense of fun and camaraderie that accompanies the experience of dining from a food truck.
