I didn't even want to attempt the boil. I wish I like shrimp more, but it just isn't something that I can eat a ton of. I'm more of a eat the two they give you complementary at a Japanese Steakhouse and then I am good for the year sort of guy! I remember when we visited Maine as a kid there would be guys on the side of the road with a barrel and a fire boiling lobsters up. I probably haven't tried lobster since then. There's a part of me that really wants to love crab and lobster, but I just don't know...
I feel like lobster is highly over-rate and definitely over-priced. We don't have the lobsters like in Maine over here in Vietnam, but rock lobsters are quite common. They still cost around $40 though, even though basically everything else is super cheap. To me they just taste like very large shrimp and king prawns are big enough.
There is a really nice steakhouse here that has a surf and turf and the lobster tail option is twice as much as the king prawn option. I do the prawn option.
