Penny White opened Saltwater Eatery in Troy just a few months ago. Her eatery is famous for its lobster rolls, but also offers seafood pasta, poutine and other New Orleans fare. If you’re not a seafood fan, try the steak frites, chicken andouille pappardelle or the roasted veggie plate with balsamic and smashed redskin potatoes. The atmosphere is comfortable and semi-casual. Penny is looking forward to adding a Sunday New Orleans brunch, and the addition of Saltwater’s liquor license.
