Rising to huge popularity in just a little under two months, the Red Hook Lobster Pound food truck made a huge splash in the DC food truck scene. It now tops the charts in food trucks with the most Twitter followers (as of Oct 10, 2010).
Also known as DC’s Lobster Truck, this food truck has a simple menu of lobster rolls and shrimp rolls. The lobster rolls are served as Maine-style (mayo-based) by default, but can also be ordered as Connecticut-style (butter-drizzled). Red Hook Lobster Pound innovated in the food truck scene by having the first fountain soda dispenser integrated into the side of the food truck, serving Maine Root soda. Pro-tip: Line up for the truck before they arrive on location. Once the truck parks, insanely long lines start to form. The lobster truck is permitted in DC, Arlington, Montgomery County and Fairfax County.
On April 30th, Red Hook launched their second DC food truck, named Lobby 2.
