Lobster

Very good lobster. We have had lobster on other cruise lines were like rubber.

Yes, cb........

 

That is why we New Englanders don't usually order the lobster tails on any of the ships. ;)

Very different taste and texture between them.

 

 

Ditto...absolutely! Post-cruise, in Naples, FL, I let my guard down and ordered lobster one night....same as on the ship.

 

Bottom line is: If you're from New England, please do not order lobster on the ship...it will be a huge disappointment. It's nothing like our Maine lobster.

Where we live we are fortunate to be able to order MAIN Lobster tails -- just had them this past Saturday at one of our favorite restaurants.

I was talking whole lobster and you were talking lobster tails. Now I get it.

 

We always talk in terms of whole lobster..... we want the claws, the body, the tamale, the legs. :) The whole lobster.

 

Mmmmmmmm, sail, you're making me hungry! I could eat lobster (Maine lobster) 7 nights a week. When we say "lobster", we mean the whole deal, too. claws, tail, tamale, legs, everything!

 

We have a restaurant on the island that has a "clambake" during the summer: clam chowder to start, then 1 1/2 lb. lobster, steamers, corn on the cob, cole slaw, potato salad. We went MANY times last summer. I work hard at the inn doing the reservations and all...and this is the only compensation I ask! ;)

Can you order lobster in the Lido or room service

 

Only on the night it's being served in the Main Dining Room. It's not a regualr Room Service or Lido menu item.
