Is lobster really delicious?

Does it taste like crab legs? I've had crab legs and love them dipped in butter

It is technically an insect...or is that just crab?

It's sort of similar but meatier with a distinct lobster taste. I love lobster but I think that I love snow crab legs even more.

It is definitely similar to crab legs though I like lobster much better. I would also try it I. A restaurant first or the process of eating it will turn you off (even if giant dreams it for you, cracking it with no knowledge of how to do it will be a put off; if you eat it at home , invite a New Englander over to help.

I have never tasted an inedible lobster. It's on my last meal list.

Lobster must be fresh. I would not go to a chain like Legal Seafood but a restaurant that has it flown in fresh daily. I like the tail. If overcooked it is not good. Must be fresh and cooked properly.

I'm not a fan of chains but I guarantee Legal Seafood is cooking fresh lobster and I guarantee their lobster is at least somewhat above average, so its a pretty safe place to try your first one.

This. Now that I think about it, is it really the butter that's delish?

Rookie. Anyone who has spend any time at all in Maine knows the knuckle meat is by far the best.

Certainly. But I've never been eating a boiled lobster and thought "Man I wish this was boiled potatoes with butter on it."

Like all shellfish, the key is to not overcook it. Lobster is very delicious. The lobster roll place in Penn Quarter is affiliated with a lobster fishery in Maine (was in the Post) and seems to have a good supply chain. I would buy from them.

Lobster roll ?

I loved it when I was a kid but later I realized that what I really loved was the melted butter I dipped it in. Lobster is good, though I can't say anymore that I adore it.

I adore melted butter.
