Yes maybe once per cruise. And it is generally not Maine or cold water lobster- it is the warm water spiny lobster. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just so you know - not all “Maine lobster” necessarily comes from Maine. Large amounts of the same species are imported into Maine from Canada’s Atlantic Provinces and once co-mingled with Maine-caught lobsters are indistinguishable. This has been going on for decades. And I do agree with you they are not the same as spiny lobster taste-wise. And when people order lobster tails in restaurants (at least in Canada) they are most likely getting imported spiny lobster as that species has no claws. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Denny01 Posted November 15, 2021 #11 Share Posted November 15, 2021 And we Floridians are Well Aware of our Longusta and warm-water lobsters, and our wonderful Maine (Canadian) lobsters! When I did Boston business trips and now NE cruises, I’l have lobster omelet for breakfast, lunch on lobster roll and of course the 2# lobster on my dinner plate…..the next day, the same! But I will dine on longusta when served. Just as I do with a lower quality cut of meat. Use to go trapping them in Key West and you could scoop up a ton of them, which you needed to do with the smaller size/no claw. Den 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We do enjoy the lobster on Celebrity. We were on Summit 2 years ago and anxiously anticipating the Lobster in Bar Harbour but alas, we had to skip the port due to weather. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bikerunner Posted November 15, 2021 #15 Share Posted November 15, 2021 Use to love lobster now really wont touch them, no reason in particular just do not find them tasty any more. Cooked them plenty of times, got them fresh from Cape Cod and Maine areas plenty of times. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rmalbers Posted November 15, 2021 #16 Share Posted November 15, 2021 The last lobster I had on X was so small it was like three or four bites worth and gone. Sign of the times I guess. Anyway, definitely not worth worrying about or looking forward to. It's like a lot of things, the highest quality stuff goes to the upper tier restaurants these days that can still make a profit serving them. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
