At the Maine Lobster Festival, the claws come out
A banner behind declares 'No One Wants To Be Scalded Alive! Go Vegan.' The rubber bands are off in the battle of the People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals (PETA) against the festival celebrating the state's world-famous cultural delicacy. Advertisement 'Damn,' says one passerby. 'He just ruined my lunch.' A PETA demonstration on the opening day of the Maine Lobster Festival called the steaming of lobsters as torture. Stan Grossfeld PETA calls the steaming of lobsters here in the world's largest lobster cooker 'torture.' They filed a lawsuit on July 24 in Knox County Superior Court against the City of Rockland and the festival to stop the 'systematic torture of approximately 16,000 live, sentient animals on public land (Harbor Park).' PETA contends the lobsters are 'painfully scalded to death through prolonged exposure to superheated steam,' without any effort to spare them pain, such as by 'stunning' them, an electrical process that would render them insensible to pain. A spokesperson for the festival says it is breaking no laws and called the PETA action a 'press stunt.' Early morning at the festival, where tens of thousands of guests visit each year. Stan Grossfeld The festival 'has celebrated Maine's iconic lobster industry for 78 years using traditional, lawful, and widely accepted cooking methods. We greet thousands of guests from all over the world each year and showcase our industry and our beautiful area, and offer a fantastic experience,' Shannon Kinney, marketing director for the Maine Lobster Festival and the Rockland Festival Corporation, said in a statement. Advertisement 'We are proud ambassadors of the beautiful state of Maine . . . and we respect everyone's right to choose what's right for them. While we respect differing viewpoints, there is no conclusive scientific consensus that lobsters experience pain.' Stunning lobsters is not 'common industry practice,' and would 'not be feasible' when serving tens of thousands who attend the festival, the statement said. A lobster loving boy posed for a photo op. Stan Grossfeld PETA says Switzerland, Norway, and the Italian city of Reggio Emilia have all made it illegal to boil lobsters alive without stunning them first. Boiling is also banned in New Zealand, and there are bans across parts of Australia, according to PETA. Amanda Brody, PETA campaigns manager, says these crustaceans are more like humans than most people realize. 'Mother lobsters are pregnant for nine months. Baby lobsters have prolonged childhood. Some of them can live to be 100 years old.' Scientists differ on how much pain a lobster experiences when they hit a big pot of boiling water. The American Veterinary Medical Association says lobsters 'struggle violently for about 2 minutes . . . thrash and try to escape . . . another indicator of stress.' A lobster that a volunteer hypnotized rested on the world's largest lobster cooker. Stan Grossfeld The Lobster Institute at the University of Maine notes the creatures have 'nerves that allow the processing of noxious stimuli,' (read: ouch!). Advertisement But, 'this does not necessarily mean lobsters feel pain the way that we understand it, as pain is a subjective experience.' In an unscientific poll, most people here said they believe lobsters can feel pain. 'I would say lobster do get brutally murdered,' says Jacob Ecker, 13, of Cushing, adding he won't eat them at all. Rebecca Spearing, the newly crowned 2025 Maine Lobster Festival delegate, is the proud daughter of a lobsterman. 'I think they're bugs,' she says with a teasing smile. US Navy Quartermaster Devine Perry in port with the USS Arlington enjoyed a steamed lobster and all the trimmings. 'I love seafood,' she said. 'I think animals and people suffer. But you can enjoy each other while we in the midst of enjoying this animal.' Stan Grossfeld 'I think they're crustaceans, and they don't have that kind of nervous system to feel (pain),' she says. " And I think they taste really good.' Glen Dwyer, selling jewelry in the arts and crafts tent, says he has worked in lobster shacks. 'I know that they suffer,' he says. 'I cooked them for three years.' But he's not a PETA fan, either 'People in this area have been harvesting lobsters since prehistoric times. It's been supporting life here, and a lot of people derive a lot of joy out of it.' Rebecca Spearing is the 2025 Maine Lobster Festival delegate. Her father is a lobsterman, and she's honored to celebrate the city's lobster heritage. Stan Grossfeld Vern Mossman, 65, the festival's cooking director, has been helping out since he was seven. He started cooking at 17. Can lobsters feel pain? He shakes his head. 'I can't get into details of that. I can't.' He oversees the gigantic lobster cooker which contains eight individual cooking units, each able to hold 200 pounds of lobster. People donated bricks engraved with their names to help build it in — the self-proclaimed 'Lobster Capital of the World.' He says no one complains to him about the treatment of the lobsters. Advertisement 'No, they just come up and thank us,' he says. 'I'm not getting paid, we're all volunteers.' This blue lobster got spared because of its color and was on exhibition in a tank as part of the festival's marine tent experience. Stan Grossfeld Donations collected from visitors go toward the community's needs, like food banks. 'We're helping out people as much as we can,' he says. He's not a lobster lover. 'I won't eat them.' he says. Donna Stobbs of Kittery, doesn't feel sorry for the lobsters at all. She thinks they are yummy. 'I feel bad for the cooking people, baking their buns off,' she says of the intense heat they face from boiling water and steam. 'But you know, the lobsters, that's their plight in life . . . to be cooked.' @font-face { font-family: BentonSansCond-Regular; src: url(" format('woff2'), url(" format('woff'); } @font-face { font-family: BentonSansCond-Bold; src: url(" format('woff2'), url(" format('woff'); } .dipupnext_hed { font-family: "MillerHeadline-Bold", "Times New Roman", Times, Georgia, serif; letter-spacing: .75px; text-align: center; font-size: 1.25em; line-height: 1; margin-top: 3px; color: #000; width: 100%; font-weight: 600; } .dipupnext_cap_cred { font-family: "BentonSansCond-Regular", "Times New Roman", Times, Georgia, serif; font-size: 16px; letter-spacing: .5px; text-align: left; margin: 3px 0px 5px 0px; font-weight: 200; color: #000; text-decoration: none; text-align: center; } .dipupnext_photo { max-width: 100%; height: auto; padding-top: 15px; opacity: 1; } .dipupnext__form:hover { opacity: .5; text-decoration: underline .5px; } .dipupnext__form{ opacity: 1; } .picupnext__container { width: 100%; position: relative; margin: 0 auto; } .dipupnext__content { width: 100%; display: grid; grid-template-columns: 3fr; } .cdipupnextcontainer { display: block; width:100%; height: auto; margin:0 auto; -moz-box-sizing: border-box; overflow: hidden; } .upnext { font-family: "BentonSansCond-Bold", Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; text-align: center; font-size: 1em; line-height: 1.15; margin-top: .5rem; letter-spacing: 0px; color: #000; padding: 8px 8px 4px 8px; margin-top: 5px; letter-spacing: .5px; } .upnext:before, .upnext:after { background-color: #000; content: ""; display: inline-block; height: 1px; position: relative; vertical-align: 4px; width: 32%; } .upnext:before { right: 0.3em; margin-left: -50%; } .upnext:after { left: 0.3em; margin-right: -50%; } .theme-dark .upnext:before { background-color: #fff; } .theme-dark .upnext:after { background-color: #fff; } .theme-dark .upnext { color: #fff; } .theme-dark .dipupnext_cap_cred { color: #fff; } .theme-dark .dipupnext_hed { color: #fff; } @media screen and (min-width: 800px){ .dipupnext__content { grid-template-columns: 1fr 1fr 1fr; grid-column-gap: 40px; } } UP NEXT Stan Grossfeld can be reached at

Anya Taylor-Joy Models This Summer's Must-Have Accessory Trend
Every item on this page was chosen by an ELLE editor. We may earn commission on some of the items you choose to buy. THE RUNDOWN: Take it from Alexa Chung, Kylie Jenner, and now Anya Taylor-Joy—silk scarves are the hottest accessory of the season. While many have been sporting the item as a belt, as seen on Lola Tung in New York City earlier in July, Taylor-Joy took the trend one step further, twisting and tying three different scarves three separate ways at the Formula 1 Hungarian Grand Prix. The Furiosa actress wrapped a pleated green scarf over her head, allowing her pigtail braids to poke through. With her Dior sunglasses and a cherry-red lip, Taylor-Joy channeled the classic Old Hollywood archetype of a glamorous movie star riding in a convertible down the Italian coastline—an appropriate image for the Formula 1 race. Taylor-Joy also sported a cream lace-trimmed scarf tied around her shoulders, which perfectly complemented her tailored Cinq à Sept shorts, white tank top, and Sam Edelman Mary Janes. To cap it all off, she completed the look with a silk scarf bag by Farm Rio, officially cementing the silk scarf as an easy-yet-dynamic styling tool. The actress was in attendance alongside her husband, Malcolm McRae, who wore his usual uniform of a button-down and slacks. The two were spotted visiting the Ferrari garage and F1 paddock during the qualification session for the Grand Prix. Inside, Taylor-Joy easily popped headphones over her green scarf. She has long been a fan of the Ferrari team, attending numerous races to show her support, and always dressing for the occasion.

Beretta Fires Back With a New Mod Look After 17 Years in the Mission
is an award-winning food writer living and eating in San Francisco. Her work has appeared in Food & Wine, Bon Appétit, the New York Times, the San Francisco Chronicle, Eater SF, and Edible SF. The original Beretta on Valencia Street has officially reopened as of Sunday, August 3, revealing a new mod look with the same strong cocktails and pizza. After 17 years worth of stirring the risotto, some adventures in pandemic delivery, and all of the Valencia bike lane rigamarole, it was definitely due for a refresh. The team shut down for six weeks worth of deep renovations, and are now promising a refreshed Beretta. 'To reassure the people who love Beretta, it's not like we're not scratching everything and starting from new,' promises Adriano Paganini of the Back of the House group. 'It's just a version that's being polished up. In some ways, it's going back to what made Beretta special to start with.' Previously Beretta leaned into dark wood and leather, industrial light fixtures, and a few Victorian flourishes, like black floral wallpaper and a bird perched in the curled cursive logo (of the same era as Portlandia's 'Put a Bird On It'). Now designer Nathan Reed is reimagining the space in Italian retro-modern, loosely channeling a mod aesthetic from the '60s. That looks like new wine — red marble, twisted wire light fixtures, sleek molded chairs, and a couple of abstract murals in black and gold. They repainted the exterior in warm gold and toned up the interiors with mahogany and cherry hues. The interior of Beretta. Michelle Min In its early days, Beretta proved a smash success by leading with strong cocktails at recession prices. Even in the depths of the downturn, you could squeeze in at the bar, order a bourbon or rye drink for $9, and feast on fava bruschette. They're bringing back the Beretta classics originally developed by star bartender Thad Vogler, including the Acadian (rye, sloe gin, absinthe, honey, lemon) and Dolores Park Swizzle (white rum, absinthe, lime, maraschino). Beverage director Caterina Mirabelli's new-school options — a pretty pink Dust Till Dawn (mezcal, prickly pear, calamansi, ginger) and spicy Mojave Road Trip (vodka, pineapple, ancho verde, basil), for example — join those throwbacks. Chef Fredy Lopez has been in this kitchen since before the beginning — he worked at the Last Supper Club before it became Beretta, and he now oversees the menus at both Beretta and Delarosa. After several years of dealing with delivery options, Paganini is especially excited to flip back to bar snacks worth sitting down for. Expect a fun selection of stuzzichini and antipasti, from bite-size caponatina agrodolce (sweet and sour eggplant) and zucchini scapece (fried zucchini with mint and vinegar), to small plates of carpaccio di polpo (octopus carpaccio) and fritto misto (fried squid, prawns, fennel, and peppers). A cocktail at Beretta. Michelle Min The Roman-esque pizza still hits that slightly thinner and crispier crust, and seasonal toppings will spin as often as always, like a new white pie piled with stracchino, mortadella, and pistachios. Beretta only introduced pasta in the last few years, and there will be agnolotti pinched around roast chicken and marsala mushrooms, and an inky new linguine nere tossed with prawns and 'nduja. It's always had a reputation for risotto, however, so don't miss those comforting dishes rich with beef ossobuco and earthy porcini. Beretta originally opened on Valencia Street in 2008 on a foundation of cocktails and pizza. For over a decade, the bar stayed open every day of the week until 2 a.m., attracting an industry crowd and vibing into the night. It won't be open that late going forward. 'The business isn't there anymore, unfortunately,' Paganini says. 'I wish it was.' But like the vast majority of his restaurants, it will still be open on Mondays, for any cooks who could use a swizzle on their day off. A dish at Beretta. Back of the House group was established in 2009, a year after Beretta's debut, and now the company operates 42 restaurants and counting. The current lineup includes Italian trattorias Corzetti and Tailor's Son, Latin hotspots Lolinda and Cubita (formerly El Techo), colorful vegan fare from Wildseed, and countless burgers from Super Duper and fried chicken sandwiches from the Bird. A second location of Beretta started as a pop-up on Divisadero Street in 2020, then wound up sticking around; no changes to that location for now. Before he was a burger maestro of the Bay Area, Paganini grew up as the son of a tailor in Milan, rose through the ranks as a chef in London, and became a restaurateur in San Francisco, when he moved here for love in the '90s. His first restaurant was Cafe Adriano, followed by Pasta Pomodoro, which grew to 40 locations at one point, but all had closed by 2016. When Paganini and his partners took another shot on Beretta, he says they poured everything they had left back into that one restaurant. 'It could have been the end of our restaurant careers. So we were very lucky that this restaurant worked, and worked amazingly well.' Beretta is known for its pizza. Michelle Min So Beretta has always been a comeback story, and it's exciting to see Paganini take a break from opening new restaurants, to swing back and polish up his Cal-Italian classic. He personally ate at the bar every week, and grew close with chef and partner Ruggero Gadaldi, who died a few years ago. 'Beretta has always had an important spot in my heart,' Paganini says. 'I think of it very fondly, because of that, and because it was the first restaurant of our comeback.'
