It was incredibly messy. I had the Lobster. And 2 sides. Which can be ordered as 'sides' or inside the bag. The Lobster looked like it would not be filling but in the end, I felt full. You have to order a minimum of 2 pounds but that's with crust and everything.The sheer effort required to break and suck and eat....It fills you up.......and wipe your clothes, your hands, your face...Oh My! Spread plenty of tissue on your lap. That definitely helps. I tried the Captain's Boil sauce. It was great! The Lobster is kind of steep but I guess it is only to be expected.
