Just to clear up a bit of confusion ...
Carol will be the chef at the Lobster Pound, working for the new owners who are from MA. I had an opportunity to meet them very briefly at the Auction at Nadia's, and they seem like very nice gentlemen. It was a very hectic time, so I didn't get an opportunity to find out their history - sorry.
Lou and Harvey, the previous owners of the Lobster Pound were both there as well. Sadly I only got a chance to chat with Lou, and only for a moment, so I don't know what his future plans are in the area. I can tell you I'll miss him - he was always a great business neighbor for us.
We wish them all well, and know that Carol will do a superb job for the new owners!
