Living in New England has its advantages, you can buy lobster right off the fishermen's boats, now that?s nice and fresh.
...What's the best time to go to NE? My wife and I have been thinking abt going to Maine and enjoy the sea food besides the beutiful sceneries..🙂

yeah and 6.99 a pound is our regular price.
 
Nice. Wanted lobster for awhile now. Maybe I'll swing by 99 Ranch and get a couple.

I've never cooked one though. Going to have to find out how to do that.

How do you cool lobster?

Is there a 99 Ranch Market anywhere near West LA?

There is one in Monterey Park and one in San Gabriel...another in Van Nuys, if you are in San Fernando Valley.

Just got back Sat from my Keenebunkport, ME/Boston/Newport, RI Trip. All I heard the whole trip from the locals was that this was the worst May weather in years. Overcast most of the week, although not much rain.

I hear that May is one of the best times of the year for Lobster, after that the lobsters molt leaving them with a soft shell for a number of months. From what I was reading while on the trip, the meat is a little less tasty and you get less meat for the money for some reason.

Congrats! Atlantic lobsters own though...

LMOA, that is an Atlantic bug (in the pic).

So, they're selling east cost lobsters in Southern California? Makes sense to me.

I like the tail meat in spiny lobsters better, but you can't deny the tastiness of alantic claw meat.

 
most lobster sold in the US is atlantic.
Most of the California catch goes to fanatics that know the good stuff and are willing to pay a premium for it (Japan)
Compared to spinies, East coast bugs taste like cardboard.

We like late september or early october. Fall colors are great then, lobster always good. Last time we went we spent Thurs-Sun just in Kennebunkport, lots to do. Trolly tour, sightseeing, lobster boat ride, shopping in downtown Kennebunkport is the best.

I dunno but as a southerner who has visited Maine, I must say it is an awesome place to visit. I can't wait to go back.
