Can’t say I’ve had it with carrots. But lobster Thermidor is divine.

Never had lobster
Did take a date once to an Italian restaurant and she ordered lobster
This full lobster came out with a massive amount of mussels
They gave a child’s bib and a pair of claw crackers
Her first attempt saw sauce fly up on her top that was not covered by the bib

I've never had lobster thermidor, but if I did I don't think I'd be against having carrots with them.

Lobster Thermador for all my life has been used by comedians to indicate that you are posh

Its a joke meal and used ironically in skits

That is lost on Tory boy Henry

I know you're vegetarian anyway Kaz ,but I actually hate how they boil Lobsters alive for food .... it's worse than what they do with other animals.

I think it's kinder to freeze them first ...then boil them. I know it's morbid to think about, but I would rather freeze to death than boil to death. One would be falling asleep and the other would be excruciating pain .

Yes! But i never have lobster thermidor with my carrots.


There is, however, no mention of carrots here:

Only a ‘green salad’. You can have chips with it though.
