Celebrating the Life of Strip T's [MA, Watertown]

So there I was in Watertown, doing the usual (picking up bricks and sand at Home Depot – from time-to-time I like to pretend I do real work) and I realized I hadn’t had food from Strip T’s in hours. So I phoned them and picked up three sandwiches to go. The one I really wanted to try was their softshell crab:

It was wonderful: cleanly fried, crisp, with sweet meat at the center. The orange stuff dripping onto the pickle is a spicy salami remoulade.

For old times sake I also picked up a cauliflower sandwich (hey, Parsnipity, you reading?) and an eggplant banh mi. Sunnyday has complained, correctly, of the oversalted nature of their food (from a few months ago) but their new chef has righted the salt ship.
