Lobster Rolls & Blueberry Pie transports readers to the Maine seashore of the past, where summer vacations stretch out forever during long, golden days and food is the stuff from which memories are made. The summers that acclaimed chef Rebecca Charles and her family spent in Maine inspired her to open the celebrated Greenwich Village restaurant Pearl Oyster Bar. Rebecca?s heartwarming memoir, complete with over seventy of her favorite recipes, brings to life the tastes and smells of a New England summer. Drawing on her family?s unique history, recipes passed down from several generations, and local lore, this book blends the atmosphere of a narrative memoir with the sheer pleasure of time-tested recipes that have made Pearl Oyster Bar one of New York?s favorite restaurants. Rebecca?s adventurous granduncle Sam Goldsmith first took the family from the sweltering summer streets of Brooklyn to the exclusive seaside resort of Kennebunkport. But it was his sister-in-law Pearle Goldsmith, Pearl Oyster Bar?s namesake and an opera singer with the Metropolitan and New York City operas, who began a love affair with the coast of Maine that would survive some of the most volatile times and movements in American history?from prohibition, to women?s rights, to anti-semitism. Through it all, Pearle kept alive her passion for Maine and its food, a passion which she passed down to her daughter, Eleanor, and granddaughter, Rebecca. In Lobster Rolls & Bluberry Pie Rebecca shares with the reader the fond memories gathered from three generations of family and friends, and the secrets to Maine cuisine that have New Yorkers waiting in line for hours.

Escape to the Maine seashore, an exquisite summer sanctuary where vacations stretch out forever during long, golden days and food is the stuff from which memories are made.
The summers that acclaimed chef Rebecca Charles and her family spent swimming in the Atlantic, scouring the beach for shells, and eating shore dinners inspired her to open the famed Greenwich Village restaurant Pearl Oyster Bar. In this heartwarming memoir, Rebecca combines more than seventy of her favorite recipes with captivating family stories.
Rebecca's adventurous granduncle Sam Goldsmith first took the family from the sweltering summer streets of Brooklyn to the exclusive seaside resort of Kennebunkport. But it was his sister-in-law Pearle Goldsmith, Pearl Oyster Bar's namesake and an opera singer with the Metropolitan and New York City operas, who fell in love with the rugged coast of Maine. Pearle passed this love on to her daughter, Eleanor, and her granddaughter, Rebecca.
Rebecca recounts her family's three-generation love affair with the small Yankee fishing village and shares the recipes that have New Yorkers waiting in line for hours to taste what food writer Ed Levine described as "the best lobster roll I have ever eaten."
Rebecca breathes new life into classic beach food. Whether re-creating an old-time clambake or grilling a whole pompano, she imparts the expertise that has made her one of the foremost seafood chefs in the country.
