My Lobster Fest From Back in The Day Toronto Canada - 100% @SolarGuy Content

I just finished reading an enlightening article by @jrcornel and brief history of Lobster as a delicacy which inspired this post.

Which got me thinking about the time I feasted at home on lobsters with my friends.

But this seems like ancient history back 2009 and I haven't seen these friends in years. At the time I was working hard and making little like so many others. One payday I just got the urge to cook my own lobsters and make an event out of it.

(wow I look happy)

(It's easy to get home sick this time of year for us expats and we find ourselves reminiscing about the past over the slightest little reminder.)

My good friends and now ex gf (the cute blonde one closest to the camera, the other is her sister.).

I had heard that Lobster were the Roaches of the sea but I learned it for a different reason. I remember I once went lobster fishing on the east coast of Canada in Nova Scotia. The fishermen were explaining how fast lobster reproduce and are bottom feeders, just like roaches. I found it fascinating that at one time lobster was poor people food back in the day. Which makes perfect sense considering all the info he mentions.

This is my journey into the world of cooking lobster at home.

First buy the live lobster. Try make sure you pick out the one that arrived most recently. Once lobster are caught they don't feed and after a few days they meat begins to change texture.

They are rather alien looking creatures aren't they? What ever an alien may look like. If I didn't know how freaking delicious they were smoothered in butter I would probably chase them off with sticks. lol

The proper way to eat lobster is with your hands. Probably another reason it was meant for the lower class back in the day, it wasn't very civilized way to eat. Cracking and crushing shells at the table. Butter dripping down your chin on to your shirt, though I doubt the poor people back then were eating butter as that was a luxury item unless you were a farmer. Best food ever has and always will be eaten with your hands!!

The Begining You mustn't forget a cheap bottle of white wine.

The Ending

Nothing civilized about it and that's the way I like it.

Now here you can see Chef Gordon Ramsay truly a culinary master fillet a Lobster like a champion. I wish I could do it like him.

3 minutes of amazement. Promise.
