Asked why it's called a "Sturdly." The answer  didn't shed all that much
light, "It's a New York thing. They put celery  salt on their hot dogs." ...

<NOBR>Throughout most of New England a  lobster roll is a bun with cold
lobster, usually mixed with mayonnaise and  sometimes celery and other salad stuff.
Back in the late 1930s, at a place  called Perry's on the Boston Post Road
(U.S. 1) in Milford, Connecticut,  the hot lobster roll was born. It consisted
of lobster meat heated in  butter and placed in a buttered and grilled
frankfurter bun. Real lobster  roll eaters know that this is the true lobster roll,
and that, while cold  lobster with mayonnaise can be a very nice salad, it is
not a lobster

In the summer Reds Eats sells about 40,000 lobster  rolls!!!!!!!!! They first
opened in 1938. About 15 people work there. The  lobster rolls became famous
because Al the owner of Reds Eats started selling  them with just lobster on a
toasted bun then later on he put mayonnaise too.  Reds Eats has yummy food
and famous lobster rolls!!!
