Get a Lob of This!
by Sarah Willis
In times of economic hardship, one might say that an article on lobster isn't the best of calls. Despite this however, how you can deny the tastiness of it? Recession aside, we all still attend extravagant events or treat ourselves to the odd night here and there so why not celebrate the lobster at occasions such as these. Two of the most commonly used varieties of Lobster come from America and Europe so we're definitely in the right place to give it a whirl!
You could always try and cook it yourself if you're feeling adventurous. As I'm sure many a chef will tell you, it's best to tackle this whilst it is still alive. Furthermore, it's important to keep the main cooking process as simple as possible by either grilling, baking, boiling or steaming your lobster, using very little seasoning. In terms of serving it, you could either try a simple butter sauce or lemon jus. However, for something more wholesome, you could rustle up a classic risotto or rice accompaniment - not a course for the faint-hearted! If you were to ask me what my favourite lobster recipe of all time was, I would most definitely say the old Lobster Thermidor (that's grilled and smothered with a cheese and mustard sauce to you and I).
You may have already gathered that I am a lover of tradition and hearty meals; however, I am also the first to admit that I am all for fine dining and fusion cuisine, a culinary style that have taken the restaurant scene by storm in recent years. In fact, not so long ago, I attended a fusion restaurant in Soho and came across a Lobster recipe that almost put the Thermidor to shame Marine Lobster Benedict. Yes, you read that right, I'm talking about grilled lobster, on a bed of steamed asparagus and toasted muffins, accompanied by a fine cut of bacon, hollandaise sauce, and lemon and parsley to taste: Scrum-didly-umptious!
If you're new to the delights of lobster, or its an old-age favourite as it is mine, why not try an equally lavish London venue to match your superb palate? The truly exquisite restaurants of House 19 and House 21 in private member's club Home House, Portman Square, both put on legendary lobster nights on a monthly basis.
This month, you could try
The Restaurant in House 19 to choose classic grilled with garlic butter or barnaise and fries whilst taking in the stunning vista of Portman Square.
Or be drawn to the deliciously aromatic dish of lobster, Asian spices and rice recipe created by chef Malwin Moe in the stunning surroundings of The Octagon Dining Room, House 21.
Home House is an exclusive social club for people from all walks of life, which is part of its charm. Quite unlike many other <a href="https://homehouse.co.uk/the-house/house-19/restaurant">private members clubs in london</a>, Home House is a place to relax or the perfect spot for a working day. Home House is also hosting London's best <a href="https://homehouse.co.uk/events/members-events/603956713/Lobster-Nights">Private Dining Events</a>.
