Gourmet and succulent lobster dinnerWhen you crave a taste of the ocean, when you want to escape from the hustle and bustle of the crowds and enjoy a beautiful and romantic getaway... At least in your imagination... An extravagant dinner can help. Prepared your favorite or a unique way you haven't tasted before, lobster dinner can be just what you need.
You can have a live lobster fresh from the tank delivered to you. Or a select cut of sweet tilapia. Or succulent shrimp. Whatever you choose, you can be sure you'll get the love of the ocean -and fresh seafood- delivered to you. When your dinner is delivered you make it as romantic as you want it to be.

Old Bay Seasoning (optional); 1/2 to 1 c. sherry; 1 tsp. concentrated chicken stock or 1 cube chicken bouillon; Salt, white pepper; 1 c. flour; 3 c. reserved lobster broth. Place lobster and celery in heavy saucepan and cover with cold water. Bring to a boil, then boil 10 to 15 minutes or until lobster is red and cooked. Remove lobster, strain broth (let lobster cool), set aside. In a large saucepan, melt butter, then fly onion and shallot until soft and translucent. Add half and half plus some of the lobster broth, reserving 3 cups for later use. Heat milk mixture thoroughly, then add paprika, sherry, chicken stock, Old Bay Seasoning, salt and pepper. In bowl, mix together the flour and reserved 3 cups of lobster broth. Heat until thickened. Meanwhile, remove meat from lobster and add to the bisque. Allow bisque to simmer (do not boil) for 15 minutes, stirring occasionally. Garnish each bowl with chopped parsley.
Either packaged and delivered or homemade, lobster dinner is a celebration of taste.
