A Sandwich a Day: Lobster BLT from B&G Oysters in Boston

If you're gonna mess with two perfect concepts—lobster rolls and BLTs—this is the way to do it. Barbara Lynch's B.L.T. with Lobster ($28), a charter-menu classic at her chic South End raw bar, is one of those rare dishes that actually makes the concept of "fusion" seem appealing. Shucked lobster meat (cooked until perfect firm-tender doneness, of course) is heaped between slices of crusty ciabatta, along with crisp bacon, ripe red tomato slices, torn romaine, and a healthy slather of lemon juice-spiked Hellmann's.

Designer Knife Bags

Similar to private school uniforms, chef whites are fashionably bland by definition. There's little room for individuality, but that could change with a budding knife bag couture. Two years ago, the New York Times Magazine revealed that chef Barbara Lynch of No. 9 Park in Boston would manufacture a messenger bag-like tote with Velcro side pouches, able to store funky-shaped peelers, graters and other gadgets.
