Simple Summer Lobster Tablescape

Growing up on the coast of Maine I’ve had my share of Maine Lobster.  My first job at 13 was waitressing for the infamous Foster’s Clambakes & Catering for three years.  It was the best job ever, getting to travel to the Boston Tea Party Ship, Newport, RI mansions, Home Bakes and so much more!  I have never tired of eating this meal, that many call a delicacy. However in Maine, lobster is a super casual dining experience.  You will find tourists scoured around Maine eating lobster, lobster rolls, and lobster stew at picnic tables, backyard parties, on the beach, etc…  It can be a messy experience, so keeping your table simple is key!  Here I share a simple, impromptu summer lobster tablescape on our farmhouse porch in Vermont.

We boil our lobsters on the grill and a 1.5-pound lobster is a perfect size for me!

Love these amber vintage glasses that were my mother’s along with the little tin cups for the butter that I found at a local consignment shop.

The Christmas Tree Shops has a great line of lobster tableware.  This is where I found these lobster plates, red placemats, and the “VINTAGE” glass bottle for our lobster tablescape here today.

Last fall I found this rattan wicker outdoor set at an estate sale. It was in perfect condition and I love the evergreen against the red house.

Along with the lobster, I will also serve corn on the cob, dinner rolls, and a salad.  That is all that is needed.  Such a simple and delicious alternative to outdoor grilling!
