Lobster

Flavour

The flavour of juicy lobster is nothing short of incredible. Regarded as one of the most highly prized dishes and known for its incredible, rich flavour, lobster is the perfect dish for almost any special occasion. Tasty, satisfying and deliciously tender, lobster is a dish enjoyed by all.

Lobster is a soft, tender white meat, flavoured with delicious butter and chives; perfectly salty, balanced, and tender, with a hint of sweetness.

Wine Pairing

When it comes to pairing wine with your lobster, both white and red options work wonders. For those who prefer white, a crisp and acidic Sauvignon Blanc or Chardonnay is a great choice, bringing out the subtle flavours of the lobster meat. If you prefer red, Pinot Noir with its lighter body and gentle tannins will enhance the richness of the lobster meat without overpowering it. Alternatively, a robust and full-bodied red like a Cabernet Sauvignon or Syrah can provide a great contrast to the sweetness of the lobster.

At Beast, we have over 300 bins of incredible wine, ranging from region to region across every corner of the world. Ask our dedicated staff for the perfect wine suggestion from our menu and we can assist with creating a specially curated selection to enhance your experience at Beast.

Sauce pairing

A classic pairing to succulent lobster is of course a creamy, rich butter sauce. Combine herbs with lemon and garlic for a perfectly seasoned, zesty butter, whipped and thickened perfectly to be poured over or dipped into.

The zesty lemon perfectly accompanies seafood, while the herbs allow the subtle sweet flavours of the lobster to showcase. Finished off with a garlicky kick and wrapped in the velvety butter sauce, the lobster will soon become your new favourite dish.

Where is it from?

Native to the south coast of the UK, the elusive lobster gracefully roams along the ocean floor. These lobsters have thrived in the cool and nutrient-rich waters. From here, the lobsters have been crawled meticulously, caught and delivered freshly to us for loving preparation.

It was first the French, English, and Spanish explorers that were enthralled by the flavours of incredible lobster. Native lobsters have since found their way into European kitchens, particularly in France where legendary French chefs, such as François Pierre de la Varenne, popularised culinary techniques during the 17th century. Here, the lobster took centre stage as a symbol of opulence and exquisite taste.
