We think Faith’s shrimp roll rivals even the best lobster shack roll. The shrimp is more affordable and the celery, onions, and corn-from-the-cob add texture and make this an extra summery sandwich. A little heat from the cayenne and the lime make it memorable. And YES. . .because of those two ingredients in particular, the salad mixture is better after sitting for a while or even the next day once all the flavors in the salad have melded. Expect a subtle heat and that lime to really come through.
We love a good buttery lobster roll too, but this sandwich is more of an everyday shrimp salad. Not that you'll eat it everyday (though, you might want to). A better idea: invite a few friends over for lunch!

I’m salivating! This is absolutely on this week’s menu.
OMG! I made this for a get-together this weekend. It was absolutely delicious!! I will be making this again. Thank you.

Made this for dinner tonight. Huge success. Easy PZ to make and didn’t break the bank..
I’m going to try this tonight substituting seafood surimi for the shrimp. I think it will work well.
