Lobster de Mayo

A charity event, at Capitale, an event space in Little Italy/Chinatown. It benefited City Harvest and was hosted by Food Network's Katie Lee. Many of the top restaurants around town made lobster dishes and Patron sponsored the event... all-you-can-eat Lobster and all-you-can-drink tequila. 

Shawn and I were stuffed, to the point of uncomfortably full. Going counter-clockwise starting top left: We had lobster guacamole--made with the roe, chicarones and chips for dipping, posole soup, a few different Asian inspired lobster buns, a lobster sushi roll, we had a few pieces of that one! A beer battered lobster taco. A lobster slider. Poached lobster with an amazing sabayon. The only dessert was a butterscotch pot de creme and a delicious grapefruit margarita. Poached lobster with a spring pea side and finally, lobster mac and cheese with chunks of lobster, a lobster cream sauce and a lobster roll. Yum!
