Straight Sexy Baby!

I find it hilarious that upscale restaurants charge all the money or Monkfish.  Poor man’s lobster, Riiiiiight.

Let’s get something straight- Lobster is lobster.

Rubbery ol’ monkfish- not lobster.

Got it?

Look Who’s 50! Our Buddy Toby Burnham!!!

Toby is one of the funniest, nicest guys you’d ever want to meet.  Salt of the earth lobsterman.  We’re lucky to get to deal with him every day- always entertaining!

Back To Back Days Of Mutant Lobsters Landed At Captain Joe and Sons In Gloucester MA

Yesterday Captain Richie Cassola a retired policeman from Beverly landed a speckled lobster (our second speckled lobster landed this year) of which the New England Aquarium claims are one in 30 million. I predicted the over under at 3 for speckled lobsters landed here at our dock this year way back on June 4th.  2 Down with 4 months to go.  I like the over!

#Boom!

A Little Slice of Heaven…

I stopped by Captain Joe’s to pick up my lobster order this morning and Frankie says, “You here to pick up your little slice of heaven?”

That’s right Frankie!–I only get my lobsters from Captain Joe and Sons–the sweetest, freshest, most delicious lobster–bar none, without a doubt, BOOM!, no contest, we got that!

What’s your “summer slice of heaven?”

Two Franks

The guys are always working super hard down at Captain Joe and Sons so its’ great to see a lighthearted moment.

Frankie Ciaramitaro and Frank Ciolino share a laugh.

Have you treated yourself and your family to a lobster feast recently? Why not–it’s so inexpensive? The price and quality of lobsters from Captian Joe’s is UNBEATABLE–only $5. per pound!!! My daughter Liv and I were eating them “by the twos” when she visited recently!

What are you waiting for-the price to return to normal?

Boston Globe Garden Reporter Carol Stocker

Boston Globe garden writer Carol Stocker stopped by to visit my garden today. I made lobster salad,  purchased fresh from Captain Joe’s earlier in the morning. What else would one serve for a VIP menu? She thought the lobsters so delicious she wanted to bring some home to her family.
