If you haven’t been to Bryant Park for Red Hook Lobster Pound’s new “Lobster Cone,” you may want to make a trip before the Winter Village closes up shop after the holidays. You will find it at a small stand, known to have a long line, in a corner of park near Sixth Avenue and 42nd Street, tucked away behind some retail shops.

The cones are filled with Lobster Bisque or New England chowder, and can be topped with fresh lobster for an added fee. What’s not to like. It’s pretty amazing. There’s also a Lobster Mac n Cheese version. The pretzel cones are sturdy enough to hold up to the fillings and edible, although we found them to be a bit thick and chewy. But who cares when the lobster is the star.

For the ultimate experience, you can get the cone filled with just lobster ($29) and drizzled with hot butter, making this one cone you’ll want to savor before the season runs out!
