I’ll keep the butter on my side of the table! You buy the lobsters and I’ll bring the crab and a bottle of Moët et Chandon White Star. (and I also use butter in the cooking, usually a compound butter of some sort. But I don’t just dunk my beautiful lobster meat in a bowl of melted butter)😃 Chaque personne a son gout! 😛 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We prefer to dip the lobster instead of having it swim in the butter. Jeepers, that's cruel! That poor lobster gave it's life for you so now it can't crawl anymore, and then to add to its misery, you deny it one last swim before departing this earth! Shame on you! 🦞 😭 😁 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Come on, you’re from MA. Eat lobster meat as is, not drowned in butter. I’ll pick up 2 4 pound lobsters on Friday and grill them. Come over and I’ll show you how good they taste without butter. 😊 I found out how much better they are without butter when I was trying to lay off butter. The true lobster taste really comes out and it is so good. I also eat corn on the cob without butter and it is much tastier. Laura 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BTW…lobster gets headlines on all the major cruise line forums here on CC. You would think that lobster is the central reason for booking a cruise LOL! 🤪 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alas, it's just about lobster tail being served on a ship. I know its ridiculous. I order Lobster Tails for my own home consumption. I order them from Maine. I dont really care if I get one or two or none on board. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s very obvious that this thread is divided between folks who look forward to “Lobster Night “ and don’t get lobster very often and the folks who can take it or leave it. With the high prices for everything I'm amazed that they can even serve lobster tails no matter how small they are. Those of us from New England and eastern Canada are not too excited by the lobster situation because we can have real lobster, live and kicking, anytime. One steadfast rule is…ALWAYS serve the drawn butter on the side! We are currently on vacation in Western Florida. Last week we bought 3 nice-size (6-7 oz) tails -- 3 for $24. I can't imagine buying in quantity would cost more than that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Send Gordon Ramsay out to all ships and anyone who does not measure up have them walk the plank.🤣🤣🤣🤣 This would also include top management who did not give them the appropriate ingredients to work with. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There was the late Michel Roux, back in the day. I don't know if he employed walking-the-plank as part of his performance management system.

Not easy to do when your budget calls for a max of $4.00 for dinner. Wholesale prices for fish don’t vary far from what the public is paying for retail. I imagine that the victualers at Celebrity are going insane trying to supply lobster tails in a inflationary and extremely fluctuating food market. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vagabond Knight Posted February 21, 2023 #124 Share Posted February 21, 2023 I don't know about the rest of you, but by the time I eat my shrimp cocktail, Caesar salad, escargot, and save room for dessert, that lobster plate will be plenty for me. That said, the presentation is dreadful. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
