Mini Lobster Roll

Olives, 10 City Square, Charlestown, 617-242-1999, www.toddenglish.com

Todd English’s revived Charlestown restaurant still emphasizes big flavors, but a new focus is small plates. This was a particularly clever and tasty presentation — a perfect little lobster roll served with a jar of rich lobster-corn chowder and potato chips dusted with Old Bay.
